Fawlty Towers The Play - Milton Keynes Theatre


Time: 19:30

🎭 The ‘Greatest British Sitcom of All Time’ (Radio Times) is back – this time on stage! 50 years since it first graced our TV screens, Fawlty Towers arrives at Milton Keynes Theatre in a brand-new stage play adapted by comedy legend John Cleese and directed by Caroline Jay Ranger.

Fresh from a SOLD-OUT West End season, this laugh-out-loud production was a huge hit with critics and audiences alike, selling out every single performance during its record-breaking London run.

🤩 WHAT TO EXPECT
Join Basil (Danny Bayne), the delightfully bumbling Major (Paul Nicholas) and Polly (Joanne Clifton), alongside an 18-strong cast, as they bring all your favourite moments from the iconic TV series to life on stage.

Expect sharp wit, glorious misunderstandings, classic one-liners and total chaos at every turn. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or introducing someone to the madness for the first time, this promises to be a brilliant night out and a top pick for a comedy-filled date night.

🎟 TICKET PRICES FROM: £23.95 depending on seating location
NOTE: A booking fee of £3.95 is applied to each order.

♿️ ACCESSIBILITY SUPPORT & BOOKING
