Not every production could show you Michael Fish being beheaded and still leave you grinning like a madman all night long, but that is exactly what The Play What I Wrote manages to do writes Andrew Westbrook.

This play within a play that took the West End by storm, winning the Olivier award for best comedy, has come to Wimbledon with a new cast and director. And it again delivers with ease.

The triumphant script is about two double acts.

Andrew Cryer and Greg Haiste have been working the comedy circuit for over a decade and their act is starting to flag. Greg wants out to follow his dream of becoming a serious playwright, but Andrew, fearing the loss of his straight man, decides to trick his partner into one more night of comedy to take them back to the glory days.

Promised his own play with guest stars, Greg instead finds himself signed up to a night celebrating the nation's favourite double act, Morecambe and Wise.

Not every gag hits the mark, but they come so thick and fast it does not take long for even the most stony-faced audience member to find themselves fighting back the giggling fits.

Cryer is excellent as one half of the troubled duo, while Haiste, with his effeminate shrieking, prancing and floppy hair is especially reminiscent of a young Rik Mayall.

However, the real star of the show is third man Anthony Hoggard, who plays an increasingly surreal array of characters as he is repeatedly called upon to convince Greg into continuing with the show.

His soliloquies remembering his mother are a real highlight of the play and take the show's level of wordplay comedy, already high, to new levels.

But a defining feature of The Play What I Wrote is its guest stars. Kylie Minogue, Sting and Roger Moore are just some of those to have taken their turn, but treading the boards at Wimbledon is Britain's longest serving weatherman, Michael Fish.

Despite never having acted before, being ill in the run-up to the show, and initially learning the wrong script Fish is hilarious - if not always intentionally.

Looking slightly bemused during many of his scenes, and undoubtedly concentrating intensely, Fish nonetheless helps involve the audience in the proceedings further, even delivering the occasional punchline with aplomb.
