FAULTY TOWERS THE DINING EXPERIENCE
BASIL AND SYBIL CELEBRATE THEIR DIAMOND (60TH) WEDDING ANNIVERSAY ON 17TH APRIL – AND TO CELEBRATE, THOUSANDS OF NEW TICKETS RELEASED AND PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE EXTENDED FROM 1 MAY
[Weds 17 April 2024] On the day that Basil and Sybil Fawlty celebrate their diamond wedding anniversary, Artistic Director Alison Pollard-Mansergh, Producer Jared Harford, and the whole team at Interactive Theatre International are proud to announce the release of thousands of extra tickets in London, plus an extended performance schedule for Faulty Towers The Dining Experience at The President Hotel in Bloomsbury. From 1 May, audiences can now book for Wednesday lunches, as well as Thursday to Sunday evening shows, and Saturday and Sunday lunches, for the critically acclaimed international immersive dining phenomenon that recently celebrated its fifteen year in the UK and more than twenty five years worldwide.
When the audience become diners in the ‘Faulty Towers’ restaurant, pretty much anything can happen – because 70% of the show is improvised. The fun starts as guests wait to be seated. It then hurtles along in a 2-hour tour de force of gags and shambolic service as Basil, Sybil and Manuel serve you up a feast.
Expect the unexpected!
Producer Jared Harford said, “We can’t believe Basil and Sybil are celebrating 60 years of wedded bliss – who would have imagined that? We’re thrilled to be extending our performances at The President this summer, and can’t wait to welcome more people to embrace the chaos!”
Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is a highly interactive experience, where audiences enjoy a 3-course meal and 5-star comedy.
