Reviews

★★★★★ - Saul Reichlin for Remotegoat
"Tom Green's brilliant, excoriating portrait of the essential Tommy Cooper. An unforgettable performance [from Damian Williams]. A marvellous production, it is all there before you. Just like that. A must-see."

★★★★★ - One Stop Arts 
"This is West-End, National Theatre virtuosity. Even if you're not a Tommy Cooper fan or you know little about his work, this show is a must-see."

British Theatre Guide
"Brave in its mission, Being Tommy Cooper is a slick, emotive and thoroughly entertaining portrait of one of the most popular comics of the 20th century."

★★★★★ - Watford Observer
"Suffice to say that it is one of the most stunning evenings I have spent in the theatre. Entertaining, funny and a fascinating insight into a Tommy Cooper that we knew far less about......Damian Williams performance as Tommy blew me away"

★★★★★ - Aline Waites for Remotegoat
"Totally riveting...an extremely enjoyable evening"
