The Story

Fawlty Towers follows the hilarious misadventures of Basil Fawlty, a cantankerous hotelier trying to uplift his run-down seaside hotel. His attempts to cater to a more elite clientele, however, are constantly thwarted by his guests, his staff, and his own lack of hospitality. The Fawlty Towers play in London brings to life Basil's exasperated tirades with his guests, staff, and wife, the hapless Spanish waiter Manuel's antics, and the amicable Polly's attempts to keep the hotel running amidst the chaos. Will Basil ever manage to raise the tone of his shabby seaside establishment? Watch Fawlty Towers play in London to find out.
