Everyone loves a good laugh-out-loud comedy, and on this front London definitely does not disappoint; plays such as Upstart Crow, Comedy about a Bank Robbery, Magic Goes Wrong, or the darkly funny The Pillowman are fantastic plays. Austentatious is an amazing Jane Austen based improvised comedy that has audiences in stitches weekly, featuring an extremely talented cast who perform a different and completely improvised show once a week, based on a title thought up by the audience members. There are also brilliantly funny musicals such as Only Fools and Horses: The Musical or The Book of Mormon that will have tears rolling down your cheeks throughout.
