Very funny indeed.
Should be good for the price.
Great gig at a great venue! Walliams and Lucas go through countless costume changes in record time to put out a set that does the TV show justice, and includes a lot of the favourites. You'll find yourself, as I did, asking yourself "I wonder how they will manage to do xxxxxx live on stage". Well - giving nothing away, they manage it admirably well, with great comic effect.
A major coup is to have Baker do the voice over work, but the feather in the cap was to convince Anthony Head to join in, and not just as the Prime Minister.
Some fantastic improv was thrown our way on the night we saw Little Britain Live, and they are both great stand-ups, as well as being able to construct and follow great slapstick.
Finally, a comment about the set designers -- just a fantastic job making a two man show run so well, and allowing the TV show to not be compromised by bringing it to the stage. Very well thought through, and very cleverly done.
A word on the location too -- no tube journeys needed, just straight down the M4 and there you are. No congestion charge either.
