    The best comics always have the hardest pasts (presents?) to work through. Comedy is Tragedy + Time. I've always hated math, though. This is a great showcase for two actors. The levels they can play through this piece are just wonderful. Great characters!

    Just when you're midway through and wondering if there's anything left to develop, Morey finds an unexpected twist that shifts the entire premise of his play and opens it up to something completely new. Beneath the comic surface, the plays asks whether talent is inherited, and what it means to succeed or fail. One thing is for sure, Morey Norkin most definitely succeeds here, and not least with any number of clever one-liners.

    There's something truly substantial about this play about two comics whose career in comedy may amount to nothing. Morey Norkin accomplishes a lot in comparatively little time, taking a chance encounter between two strangers and expanding it into an emotional, theatrical treat. Packed with one-liners and biting barbs, Last Laugh ultimately is a play with plenty of heart and humor to spare.

    Wow! The intertwined world of comedy and family drama/tragedy that has been created here is truly fabulous. Morey takes you on an emotional rollar coaster as Jennifer and Jackie present you with snapshots of witty back and forth while intermittently segwaying into beautiful emotional dialogue. You feel for them both the more you discover and you walk away feeling like you've experienced something truly wonderful. Its wonderfully written and beautifully balanced.
