Jim Hacker and Sir Humphrey Appleby are back - and on stage - in the biggest West End comedy hit of the year.

Now it's Australia's turn to share the hilarity.

From the original writers of the hit BBC TV series - Jonathan Lynn and Antony Jay - comes the first-ever stage play of YES, PRIME MINISTER.

Set in the present day, in the oak panelled drawing room at Chequers, the British Prime Minister's official country residence, the Embattled PM Jim Hacker, Cabinet Secretary Sir Humphrey Appleby and Principal Private Secretary Bernard Woolley face their greatest challenge yet. Theres the GFC, rising oil prices, minority governments, illegal immigrants and global warming. If thats not enough to contend with, the 24 hour news cycle, constant bleating of mobile phones, endless emails and a new generation of spin doctors.

With help and hindrance from inquisitive journalists, a new generation of special advisors, the Director General of the BBC and an oil rich Ambassador with a most disturbing interest in foreign affairs, this play engages audiences with the best of comedy and the worst of politics.

This Australian premiere production will star an exciting Australian cast in the uproariously funny roles that have become cultural icons - stay tuned for updates!

"Jim Hacker and Sir Humphrey Appleby are back and in truly vintage form. The comedy remains as politically sharp and as blissfully funny as ever" Daily Telegraph
