Lonely Planet review

The Just for Laughs Museum is the seat of the summer comedy festival of the same name. Apparently comedian George Burns was nearly killed by a brick of fake banknotes here, but otherwise guffaws are few and far between. A favorite with kids, the Abracadabra show reveals a fascinating glimpse of magic and magicians behind the scenes. The adjacent Cabaret Theater (845-2014) stages special events and shows.

This warehouse space runs the best 100 comedy clips from comics around the world, from Roberto Benigni to Steve Martin, in its International Humor Hall of Fame.
