Fawlty Towers

“Yes, right dear, I'll tell them. Hello, Basil here, Get booked into Fawlty Towers...er, I mean get booking your tickets to see this classic comedy recreated live on stage by Encore Theatre Company at the Earl Arts Centre this July.” “Well come on, come on! You haven't got all day you know..." Join Basil, Sybil, Polly, Manuel and a host of long-suffering and much abused guests in one of the best-loved British comedies ever written! Four classic episodes from the television series will delight audiences as the cast romp through Waldorf Salad, The Germans, Communication Problems and Basil the Rat. Incredibly, when John Cleese and Connie Booth first submitted their scripts for Fawlty Towers to the BBC they were not at all well received. But, after the success of Monty Python the BBC decided to trust Cleese’s judgement, and the result was one of the most treasured and influential comedies of all time. Taking on the challenge of bringing the show to the stage, Encore Theatre Company has developed a well-earned reputation for specialising in comedy. Previous productions have included stage adaptations of Are You Being Served? and ‘Allo ‘Allo.
