A good comedy is damn difficult to review. You can say something is hilarious, rib-tickling, smirksome, chortleworthy and so on, but you're just repeating yourself - how many different ways can you say something is plain funny. If you begin to describe the best bits then you're spoiling the punchline and dissecting why it's funny feels like you're missing the point a bit. But yes, The Ladykillers is funny. Funny, funny funny. This is an adaptation of the funny 1955 Ealing Studios film of the same name starring the very funny Alec Guinness. The writer for this stage version is TV funnyman Graham Linehan writer of Black Books (very funny), Father Ted (very very funny) and The IT Crowd (..... sporadically funny).
