Being Tommy Cooper by Tom Green

Being Tommy Cooper by Tom Green

Las Vegas 1954: Tommy Cooper faces the prospect of his first big failure. As personal and professional problems collide, he faces stark choices about the future.

"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" British Theatre Guide "The play is full of great comedy but also some high drama...a must see for fans of Cooper." WhatsOnStage "Highly recommended ... a thought-provoking portrayal of a man who will always be loved by millions, yet wasn't quite what he seemed." Blackpool Gazette "A fascinating insight into how one man can simultaneously be a national hero and his own worst enemy" York Press
