FAULTY TOWERS THE DINING EXPERIENCE to Return to Melbourne International Comedy Festival

Interactive Theatre International presents: Faulty Towers The Dining Experience
- Another, much-in-demand opportunity to be served by Basil, Sybil and Manuel in this internationally acclaimed five-star show - now in its 20th birthday year and its 11th consecutive appearance at MICF.

Chaos reigns as soon as the audience walks through the door to become diners in an immersive show where anything can happen. A true blend of ingenious comedy, a unique theatrical script and a delicious meal, this multi-sensory experience is perfect for comedy fans, theatre fanatics and anyone who just fancies going out for a dinner they will never forget. And with 70% of the show improvised, no two performances are ever the same. So join Basil, Sybil and Manuel for lashings of laughter, huge spoonfuls of spontaneity, plenty of participation and a 3-course meal to boot.

Picking up 5-star reviews and selling out everywhere it goes, this globe-trotting hit is 'definitely worth getting off the couch for' (Stage Whispers, Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2016). It's now in its 20th year and continues to go from success to success. In 2017 it's again touring Australia, as well as Europe, Scandinavia, Singapore and the Caribbean.

Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is an affectionate homage to Fawlty Towers, the BBC TV series written by John Cleese and Connie Booth; their scripts are not used in Faulty Towers The Dining Experience.

Faulty Towers The Dining Experience opened in Brisbane in 1997 and now has 10 teams of cast touring the world virtually non-stop. The MICF cast features Rob Langston (Basil), Karina Garnett (Sybil) and Andrew Foreman (Manuel), actors who have won 5-star reviews around the world. Performer biogs are on the Actors page at www.torquaysuitetheatre.com.

The show is also in the fifth year of a London West End residency where it's been awarded the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence two years running. With a string of return visits to Adelaide Fringe, Fringe World Perth, Sydney Opera House and Edinburgh Fringe, it's clear that Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is the most successful interactive comedy show of its kind.

Produced by Brisbane's Interactive Theatre International (ITI), a company focused on producing and touring site specific, immersive theatre, Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is the perfect show for people who don't usually attend theatre. It is a light-hearted comedy that's hosted in a huge range of venues including country ranches, vineyards, hotels, restaurants and, of course, theatre spaces and arts centres.

ITI itself is a part of Imagination Workshop, a theatre Production Company with a real passion for education. Imagination Workshop uses theatre to enable people to understand the world differently, and it is dedicated to raising the profile of theatre so that it becomes an everyday choice of entertainment for everybody.
