My overall impression

From the moment you arrive at the Lillian Theatre, you can tell that you’re in for a night of goofy, fun-loving entertainment. The Halfwits’ Last Hurrah gathers together the kookiest people in Hollywood to put on a show that is fast-paced, well-acted and sung, and strangely captivating, in the best way. The comedy is solid, the double-entendres are satisfying, and the characters seem like they’ve jumped out of a Saturday morning cartoon to give the Fringe Festival something to laugh about (don’t worry, we’re laughing with you, not at you). Get there early to get good seats; those in the front row have a possible chance at giving a cast member a kiss on the cheek before the show begins (I was so lucky)!

Butterbeans Arbuckle, you really know how to assemble some worthwhile Halfwits!
