Comedy fans have already snapped up all the tickets for the group’s take on one of Britain’s best TV sitcoms.

Hotel owner Basil Fawlty is impolite, intolerant and generally rude towards the guests he views as an unwelcome imposition. His wife, Sybil, is more practical, but seems to have an aversion to work. So, the running of the hotel is often left to the waitress Polly. Meanwhile, Spanish waiter Manuel is still struggling with English.
