Imagine sitting in the restaurant run by Basil Faulty, his wife Sybil, and their language-challenged waiter Manuel. Be one of the steady stream of bemused guests trying to make Manuel understand what it is you want. Innocently ask for an ‘ice bucket’ and you’ll probably end up with a ‘nice bucket’; a simple procedure like opening a bottle of wine can become a huge drama; and maybe, in the middle of all these events, you might get some service. Everything that can go wrong will - in fact this can best be described as organised chaos!!
The 2-hour interactive performance revolves around a 3-course dinner (included in the ticket price), commencing with Basil and Manuel seating the guests, continuing as everyone eats, and concluding as dessert is served. Please note: the action happens AROUND the guests ... NOT on a stage.
Appearing as part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Rated PG … Basil requests no riff-raff please!
“In Short, this was a night when tears rolled down faces, sides ached and split, and many a fine lash full of mascara turned into a bad Kiss caricature. Hysterical. A show not to be missed - truly." - Barfly, Cairns Post
$65 for 3-course meal and 2-hour show ($59 on Tight-Arse Tuesday)
