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.... full review

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.... full review

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. ... full review

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. ... full review

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!... full review

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!... full review

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! ... full review

I knew I was going to like this show already when I got handed a York peppermint patty while waiting in line to get in. And it kept getting better. The Halfwits' Last Hurrah is one of those shows that is so fun and zany that it makes you wish you were a part of it, and then before you know it, you actually are fully part of the action. They make you feel like this show was created for you and with you and that's the kind of theatre I love most. Don't miss this rad show. If you're looking for laughs (who isn't?), definitely check this out. ... full review

Hurrah to Four Clowns on an amazingly hilarious show! 'The Halfwit's Last Hurrah' was the second show produced by Four Clowns that I had the pleasure of watching, the first being Cal State Long Beach's production of 'Ubu The Shit', and I couldn't have been more entertained. Four Clowns really knows how to create an experience for audience members. The show begins from the moment you stand in line! You're greeted by the incredibly charming Meri Winkle "the liquor vendor" as you wait and enter the theater, then the fun continues! I recommend sitting in the front row if, like me, you're a fan of the possibility of interacting and even becoming a part of the show! The show is cleverly written and incorporates so much more than the expected ... full review
