The performers and the script! We were a little too far left to see the whole stage , but did not know that at time of booking!

I didn't have se see Adam Jackson-Smith to hear that he was "Basil Fawlty", and he sounded exactly like John Cleese! The rest of the cast were also good, but my seat wasn't so good, so I couldn't see the reception, which made a - bad - difference, but all in all it was a fine experience.

The performance was amazing. For my generation, it was roughly true to the original with a hint of panto o about it as the 12 episodes are so ingrained in our consciousness. A fun evening for sure.

If you want to see a Fawlty Towers episode done on the stage that is exactly what you will get. Cast was really good. The lead actor was channelling Cleese. Balcony seats let us down a little in this venue; couldn't see all of the set.

Whe booking the tickets I was aware 3 seats together were in the eaves, however, I was not aware that the only way to access these were by a concrete spiralling staircase at the side entrance to the front door. Two of us walk with sticks and it was exhausting to access our seats. To be fair a staff member who showed as our seats did fetch the three of us water, which was much appreciated. The show itself was good. However we then had to exit in the same manner, as you can imagine this is very painful when you have bad knees. We are all in our early to mid sixties.
