Written and directed by Paul Hendy, The Last Laugh is heading to the West End early next year.

The new play reimagines the lives of three of Britain's all-time greatest comedy heroes - Tommy Cooper, Eric Morecambe and Bob Monkhouse. Filled to the brim with great gags and touching stories, The Last Laugh will offer audiences a nostalgic and poignant night.

Reprising their roles from the Edinburgh run will be Bob Golding as Eric Morecambe, Damian Williams as Tommy Cooper and Simon Cartwright as Bob Monkhouse.

The creative team includes Set design by Lee Newby, Music and Soundscape design by Ethan Lewis Maltby, Sound design by Callum Wills, Costume design by Amy Chamberlain and Casting by Kate Roddy.

The Last Laugh will run at the Noel Coward Theatre from 25 February - 22 March 2025.
