Audition Notice: Fawlty Towers

Audition Notice
 
Workshop Theatre Presents
 
Yet Another Evening at Fawlty Towers
 
Running at the Pumphouse Theatres - January 27 - February 4, 2017
 
Welcome back to Fawlty Towers, a fictional hotel in the seaside town of Torquay, on the "English Riviera". Our plots centre on tense, rude, and put-upon Basil Fawlty, his bossy wife Sybil, comparatively normal chambermaid Polly, who is often the peacemaker and voice of reason, and hapless Spanish waiter Manuel, showing their attempts to run the hotel amidst farcical situations and an array of demanding and eccentric guests. 
 
(Back by popular demand – Three different episodes!)
 
The Builders
Basil the Rat
The Germans

Directed by Kayte Davies, Bob Cooper and Alan LeBoeuf
Produced by Emily Brennan
