Filled with great gags and touching stories, The Last Laugh is nostalgic and poignant and guaranteed to be Manchester’s best comedy night out.
The Last Laugh is a “brilliant” (The Telegraph) smash-hit, West End play which imagines three of Britain's all-time greatest comedy heroes – Tommy Cooper, Eric Morecambe and Bob Monkhouse –in a dressing room, discussing the secret of life, death, comedy and what it means to be funny… really funny!

Originally The New Theatre, it opened on Boxing Day, 1912. It went through several iterations, being renamed once before becoming the Opera House in 1920. It's also been used for different functions; as a cinema in WW2, then a bingo hall before reopening as a theatre again in 1984. Since, it has hosted magnificent shows like Barnum and Phantom of the Opera.
