Fawlty Towers

About the play

Nearly forty years since it was first broadcast in the UK, Fawlty Towers remains acclaimed as among the most loved and enduring of British sitcoms. Its success was international, and all twelve episodes are still broadcast in order, twice weekly, in the United States.

The huge advantage with this production is outstanding material. The three episodes are completely true to the original TV scripts, each one worked on for six weeks by the writers, John Cleese and Connie Booth. The result is comedy gold, with no lines wasted or redundant and plots which thunder along with laughter all the way.
