Airline farce comes to theatre
London Classic Theatre brings a UK tour of Marc Camoletti’s BOEING BOEING to Theatr Clwyd later this month.
Michael Cabot directs Nathalie Barclay, Jo Castleton , Isabel Della-Porta , Jessica Dennis , John Dorney and Paul Sandys in a translation by Beverley Cross and Francis Evans.
Carefully constructed plans turn to comedic chaos for architect Bernard in this 60s comedy which has been staged, world wide for more than half a century. Keeping his three fiancées on separate timetables all is going to plan until his old friend turns up and things start to unravel. Expect comic chaos and a cad getting his comeuppance.
Artistic Director Michael Cabot said today “I’m very excited to be working on this wonderful piece with a terrific cast and creative team. Boeing Boeing is one of the longest running and most successful farces ever written for the stage. In terms of comedy, it really has got it all - larger than life characters, an improbable plot and an abundance of comic mayhem. It promises to be great fun, but I also hope we can bring a contemporary twist to the story - the women in the play are definitely no pushover and Bernard will be getting a very powerful taste of his own medicine.”
Boeing Boeing will be performed at Theatr Clwyd from May 24 – 28 in the Anthony Hopkins Theatre. Tickets are from £10. Booking available at Theatr Clwyd’s website www.theatrclwyd.com or by calling 01352 344101.
