About the Show
Fresh from a SOLD-OUT West End season, the ‘Greatest British Sitcom of All Time’ (Radio Times) is back – due to phenomenal demand!
This laugh-out-loud production was universally acclaimed by every London and national critic, selling out every single performance during its record-breaking West-End run.
Join Basil (Danny Bayne), the delightfully bumbling Major (Paul Nicholas), Polly (Joanne Clifton) and Mrs. Richards (Helen Lederer), with an 18-strong cast as they bring to life all your favourite moments from the show’s unforgettable twelve episodes. With sharp wit, chaos, and calamity at every turn, this is the comedy event of the year!
Secure your tickets now and relive the madness of Fawlty Towers live on stage. It’s a staycation you’ll never forget!
“What a thrill to be bringing Fawlty Towers to the West End for the first time - nearly 50 years since the show was first recorded, in December 1974. We’ve been involved in the casting process for some time, being constantly reminded of what a wealth of acting talent we have in Britain - sorting the very, very, very good from the merely very, very good.
Finally, we assembled a top-class group of comedy actors who will bring the show to the Apollo Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue. I’ve adapted three of my favourite episodes for the stage and written one huge finale, which will bring together the endings of all three episodes. So here we are, all the way from Torquay, via the old BBC Television Centre, to the West End!
I do hope some of you will come to the Apollo to laugh together. And laugh. And laugh……...”
