Basil is Back Australia! Fawlty Towers Live will be based on the BBC TV series written by John Cleese and Connie Booth. It will be adapted for the stage by John Cleese, with direction by Caroline J. Ranger, set and costume design by Liz Ascroft and Lighting Design by Ian Scott.

Manic, snobbish, condescending and rude, Basil Fawlty is without doubt one of the funniest, most iconic and memorable British comedy characters ever written. This original adaptation will bring all your beloved characters to life onstage in an unmissable evening of hilarity!

Playing the role of Basil is the extraordinary Stephen Hall, who will lead an all new Australian cast including, Blazey Best (Sybil), Aimee Horne (Polly) and Syd Brisbane (Manuel).

And, whatever you do…Don’t mention the war!
