Fawlty Towers The Play – A Comedy Classic Returns to Ipswich!

We’re thrilled to bring you Fawlty Towers The Play, hailed as the ‘Greatest British Sitcom of All Time’ by Radio Times, now brought to life on stage! Nearly 50 years after it first made us laugh on TV, John Cleese himself has adapted this brand-new play, directed by the talented Caroline Jay Ranger.

Fresh from a SOLD-OUT West End season, this laugh-out-loud production won the hearts of every London and national critic – selling out absolutely every performance during its record-breaking run.

Meet the Cast & Relive the Chaos!

Join Basil, played brilliantly by Danny Bayne, the delightfully bumbling Major brought to life by Paul Nicholas, and the ever-resourceful Polly portrayed by Joanne Clifton. Along with an 18-strong cast, they recreate all your favourite moments from the show’s unforgettable twelve episodes.

Expect sharp wit, hilarious chaos, and calamity at every turn – truly the comedy event of the year! Whether you’re a long-time fan or discovering Fawlty Towers for the first time, this is a must-see.
