Fawlty Towers - The Play

For a sitcom that only lasted for 12 episodes, Fawlty Towers left an indelible mark on British comedy. Discourteous hotel owner Basil Fawlty and his shrewish wife Sybil became legends, along with long-suffering chambermaid Polly and hapless waiter Manuel. Previously staged in Australia, this nostalgic and tightly choreographed play is adapted by the series’ original co-writer John Cleese.

The much-anticipated stage adaptation of the beloved 1975 sitcom Fawlty Towers will premiere at London's Apollo Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue, free of racial slurs, confirmed John Cleese, the show’s creator.
