Due to popular demand, new dates have been released for the Manchester residency of Faulty Towers The Dining Experience, with new residencies also announced for Edinburgh and Birmingham this autumn, and a series of international touring dates in 2023.
Scottish audiences will be able to enjoy Basil’s antics this autumn, with an Edinburgh residency now confirmed for 28 September – 8 October at the Apex Grassmarket Hotel. Those in the Midlands can visit Sybil and Manuel at the Banqueting Suite at the Council House in Birmingham from 26 October – 5 November.
The show will return to Manchester for a pre-Christmas weekend (5 – 6 December) and then sit down for a three-week stint in spring 2024, with performances from 14 February – 3 March. The show will also do a pre-Christmas weekend at Hotel Brooklyn in Leicester (12 – 13 December), and then return in 2024 for a two-week spring stint from 7 – 17 March.
The show’s 2023 international dates include Ireland (24 Nov – 17 Dec), Denmark (21 Nov – 10 Dec), the Netherlands (12 Oct – 12 Nov) and Sweden (20-22 Oct).
Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is a highly interactive experience, where audiences enjoy a 3-course meal and 5-star comedy. It has just extended its residency in London for another year, with tickets there now on sale until December 2023.
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 a ‘70s-style 3-course meal together with a good dollop of mayhem.
Expect the unexpected!
Producer Jared Harford said: “We’re so thrilled at the reception we have received opening residencies in new cities, and we cannot wait to open more later this year. We look forward to welcoming new audiences through the door, and hope to expand even further across the UK in 2024 – plus continuing our world-wide success with our European dates in 2023.”
Tickets are now on sale here.
