The Four Clowns do it again! The Halfwits' Last Hurrah swings for the fences, and through top-notch slapstick, clowning and circus acrobatics, knocks it clear out of the park! An outstanding comedic offering with a surprising amount of heart. The narrative could stand to be refined and clarified a little bit, but that minor quibble will certainly not ruin your enjoyment of this vaudeville spectacular. Put this on your must-see list.
PS - In addition to the show being straight-up awesome, the clowns present the most memorable curtain speech I've seen. "Insta-gram-gram-gram-grrrm-grrrrrrmmmm..."...

This is the quirky, ditzy, dirty, vaudeville you’ve been waiting for all year. A potpourri of mayhem with a smile. Highly recommended. ~Gia On The Move (Official Press) http://giaonthemove.com/2015/06/05/gia-hff15-reviews-four-clowns-presents-the-halfwits-last-hurrah/

This show is unstoppable. It is impossible to get bored when a show is as carefully crafted and fine tuned as The Halfwits Last Hurrah. Embracing the spirit of play, with a nice little dose of heart, this show leaves you ticklish with its endless physical gags, lyrical wit and a through line that takes you out of the Theater Asylum and right into Butterbean's wondrous show of misfits. Fun. Just some good old fun....

Get ready for constant laughs, an appropriate amount of raunchiness, and a very talented cast. This show was crafty, quick-witted, and charming. Go see it before it's too late!...

I was extremely impressed with "The Halfwits' Last Hurrah"! I went in not knowing what to expect and I laughed all the way through it. Four Clowns has a wonderful show on their hands that you don't want to miss!...

Hurrah for the Half Wits!
Charming, clever bauble of a play concerning an overinflated (and under-prepared) ring master and his menagerie of "acts" -all seemingly JUST released from some sort of rescue mission, asylum or vaguely european circus.
Production features lots classic clown humor, with a storyline driven by a dastardly Texan villian thrown in for good measure (but no good.)
It is obvious these folks know their craft, and rejoice in it.
Sophisticated and yet simple, this show will enjoyed by all.
