Description
Interactive Theatre International presents:
Faulty Towers The Dining Experience
Waited upon by Basil, Sybil and Manuel, this is fully immersive, highly improvised and site-specific comedy theatre at its best. Only one third of the show scripted, so anything can happen as you take a seat in the 'Fawlty Towers' restaurant… Expect all the best gags, shambolic service and a ‘70s style 3-course meal in ‘a hilarious battle of wits, patience, fire extinguishers and fine food’ (Australian Traveller magazine, Sydney Opera House). Just don’t mention the war! Internationally acclaimed by audiences and critics alike.
- 'Hysterical. A show not to be missed.' (Cairns Post)
- ‘Food snortingly funny’ (Australian Stage, FringeWorld Perth)
- 'The cast is excellent and the laughs never-ending… No doubt even John Cleese would enjoy the show.' (Herald Sun, Melbourne International Comedy Festival)
- 'There's a reason this show constantly gets rave reviews. It is brilliant.' (Adelaide Now headline, Adelaide Fringe)
Tickets included a 3-course meal and a 2 hour laugh-out-loud funny show.
Pre-drinks from 6pm with ‘Happy Hour’ discounts commencing at 6.30pm to 7.30pm.
Having filled the first half of this year with Fringe World Perth, Adelaide Fringe and Melbourne International Comedy Festival, as well as various independent venues – including Sydney Opera House – this legendary Australian show comes to The Singing Chef in August.
Faulty Towers The Dining Experience was born in Brisbane in 1997 and made its international debut in 2008 at the Edinburgh Fringe, where it’s sold out every year since. It opened a residency in London’s West End in October 2012 and continues there still. Eight teams of cast now tour the world non-stop. The cast for The Singing Chef features Paul Geoghegan as Basil, Karen Hamilton as Sybil, and Anthony Sottile as Manuel – find out more about them on the Actors page at: www.interactivetheatre.com.au

Note:
- Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is an affectionate homage to Fawlty Towers the TV series written by John Cleese and Connie Booth. Their original TV scripts are not used in Faulty Towers The Dining Experience. Artistic director and company co-founder, Alison Pollard-Mansergh adds:
‘Faulty is spelled that way because when I started this show in 1997, John Cleese, Prunella Scales and Andrew Sachs were still young enough to perform their roles. I didn't want people to think they were getting the original, so I spelled it differently. Happily, both they and the BBC know of our show, and we work often with the BBC.’
- ‘so talented – had us in stitches… lots of good feedback from listeners too.’ (BBC Radio Five Live, UK)
- ‘truly an experience… a fantastic evening’ (What’s on Stage, UK)
- ‘top end entertainment that will knock you for six’ (What’s on London)
