If you go into "The Halfwits' Last Hurrah" knowing anything about Four Clowns, then you know that you should expect a fantastic show. And it doesn't disappoint. From the time you are standing in line waiting to enter the theater, to the second you leave the show has already begun. Using clown techniques the ensemble draws the audience in for hilarious highs and heart stopping lows. This show has it all: comedy, tragedy, songs, aerobatics, and much much more. If you're going to see one Fringe show this season, let "Halfwits' Last Hurrah" be it....

This show is spectacular, wonderful, and hilarious! The play begins right when you take your seats, and the laughs keep coming.
The Halfwits are a bizarre collection of charm and candor and you will root for them (especially Butterbeans and Nimrod) the whole show. Let's be honest, we all wish to join the Halfwits.
This is going to be a sell out show, and only 5 more performances! Do it now! Why are you reading this? Get to the checkout!...

Another excellent production from Four Clowns. Excellent cast, great displays of talents, and a wonderful deus ex machina in the last few minutes. Highly recommended; hope this isn't the last we see of the Halfwits....

Thanks Four Clowns for a bizarre and entertaining evening. I had no idea what I was in for, and I am still not sure I can describe it. But I had fun and I laughed. Part circus, part vaudeville, part farcical melodrama, all fun....

Fun, fast paced, hilarious, absolutely charming! The show is jam packed with acrobatics, comedy, clowning, singing, slapstick (and more) but my hands-down favorite were the wonderful characters created by the super-talented cast. You will be charmed! Don't miss this show. ...

Oh man,four clowns really knocks it out of the park with Halfwits Last Hurrah. The preshow act immediately set a great mood and captured my attention immediately.
The Lillian Theatre was an absolutely gorgeous venue and I think the perfect environment to let these performers work their magic. There were acrobats, stilts, puppets and a fake mustache. I mean, what else could you ask for? The line does get a bit long so be sure to get there early in order to ensure yourself of a great seat in the front row. This is an incredible original show with lots laughs and awes. If you get a chance, go check this show out you definitely won't regret it. ...

Hip, hip hurrah for the Halfwits Last Hurrah! I have been waiting quite a while to see great vaudeville show and The Halfwits Last Hurrah was worth the wait. Four Clowns has re-created an iconic variety show from past blended with a storyline that has a bit of a dark side. The performers were funny and first-rate. While they may be halfwits, but they're performances are wholehearted! Spend a delightfully fun hour with The Halfwits!...

I have never seen a four clowns show before, but my friend had an extra ticket so I went. All I can say is oh my god. This show was absolutely hilarious. It had so much energy and physicality and heart. I was crying from laughter and crying in sadness. I loved every minute. There was not a lull in the amazingness of this show. Go. Go! GO!...

Great show! Truly immerses the audience into the world of the play. I got to see the show during preview, and It's obvious many of the bits and jokes were completely improv'ed based on the relationship between the actors and audience. If you want a great laugh, and you're comfortable with the disappearance of the 4th wall, check this out! ...
