John Cleese makes his writing debut with Bang Bang! A delicious blend of French Farce and Fawlty Towers, Bang Bang is a hilarious new adaptation of the classic comedy.
“Hilarious!” “Very Funny” “ Loved it!” “...a riot of comedy… brilliant farce with laugh a minute one-liners which had us in stitches. A must see.” - Audience reviews from the original production at Colchester Mercury Theatre.
When Leontine, a respectable society lady, discovers that she’s been hoodwinked by her husband, Duchotel, who’s always pretending to go hunting but really chasing after other ‘prey’, she vows to take revenge on the philanderer! But while Duchotel’s away, his lifelong friend comes calling – and he’s on the hunt too. Will Leontine get caught in his sights, or instead set a trap of her own?
‘Cleese is a master of surreal British slapstick’ - Daily Telegraph
Bang Bang stars Tessa Peake-Jones who became a household name with her role as Raquel in the iconic comedy Only Fools and Horses. Tony Gardner first made his name in comedy as part of the award-winning comedy duo Struck off and Die. Wendi Peters is most widely known for her role as Cilla Battersby in Coronation Street and is currently appearing in the West End smash-hit musical BIG.
