Following a phenomenal two years in the West End and a sensational first UK and Ireland tour, the “indisputably terrific” (The Times) OLIVIER AWARD-WINNING BEST NEW MUSICAL, charting the euphoric highs and agonizing lows of THE KINKS, is back!

Faulty Towers - 6th November 2025, 7.30pm at the Opera House

 Fawlty Towers – The Play - 6th November 2025, 7.30pm

Manuel, take the guests' bags and show them to their room! This Autumn, check into Fawlty Towers, the world’s most chaotic hotel, at the Opera House, Manchester

In this new comic play, the characters we know and love are all present and correct and nothing at the genteel Torquay hotel is running smoothly – it’s more of a madhouse than a spot for a weekend by the sea. Basil is in a bother of his own making, Sybil is gossiping, Manuel is struggling with his English, and Polly is trying to hold everything together.

Adapted for the stage by John Cleese, who co-created the original TV show with Connie Booth and remains synonymous with the role of Basil Fawlty, the show is based on three of the best-loved episodes: “The Hotel Inspectors”, “Communication Problems”, and “The Germans”. Basil is paranoid that there’s an inspector in his midst, the bad-tempered “guest from hell”, Mrs Richards, in on his case while he tries to hide his gambling from Sybil, and he’s outrageously insensitive towards a group of German visitors while suffering the effects of a concussion. Enjoy three hilariously farcical storylines in one evening!
