Adelaide Fringe 2010 – Faulty Towers The Dining Experience - International sell-out show returns

Enter the world of Fawlty Towers!
Following sell-out tours of Europe where it won five-star reviews and standing ovations, Australia’s hit show returns to Adelaide.

Featuring all the best gags and a great meal, Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is a loosely-scripted, pitch-perfect '13th episode' of the famous TV series - just don't mention the war!

The fun starts as you, the audience, are called to be seated in the restaurant of the Fawlty Towers hotel, and it hurtles along for the next two hours as Sybil, Basil and Manuel serve the meal... Basil is manic, Sybil domineering, and Manuel – of course – is hopelessly language-challenged. Everything that can wrong, does in some non-stop, beautifully controlled chaos.

Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is a site-specific, 'total immersion' piece of interactive comedy theatre performed in a restaurant: the audience are the diners and the cast their warring waiters.
Among the show’s fans: tens of thousands of members of the public, legions of press, and even the BBC, which has featured the show on national and regional radio and TV. Born in Australia in 1997, the show continues to tour Australia and Europe throughout 2010.
