FAULTY TOWERS THE DINING
EXPERIENCE
Faulty Towers The Dining Experience
– the multi award-winning global
phenomenon that offers an experience
like no other, set in the iconic Fawlty
Towers hotel – has released thousands
of new tickets for 2025, as it heads into
its 13th year in London. Audiences can
enjoy a quintessentially British
experience as Basil, Sybil and Manuel
serve up theatre and chaos alongside a
70s-style 3-course meal at the President
Hotel, right in the heart of Bloomsbury,
London, where the trio have spent over a
decade setting West End records for
longest running immersive experience,
longest running show based on a TV
series, and the longest running Fawlty
Towers show of any kind worldwide.
Producer Jared Harford said, ‘We
continue to be thrilled and humbled by
the global success of Faulty Towers The
Dining Experience. With such renewed
interest and demand out there for Fawlty
Towers, we’re so pleased to be extending
our London season into our 13th year,
and once again have an extensive UK
tour planned. 13 has always been my
lucky number, and I’m so grateful for the
opportunity to continue bringing
Britain’s most loved hoteliers to life in
our largest season yet!’
The President Hotel is a short walk
from Russell Square station, which is on
the Piccadilly Line.

THE CHOIR OF MAN EXTENDS AT
THE ARTS THEATRE
The producers of Olivier-nominated
international stage The Choir of Man
have announced an extension for the hit
musical, which will now play at the Arts
Theatre until 4 January 2026.
Welcome to the Jungle, the best pub
in the world. Here, an (extra)ordinary
cast of nine guys combine beautiful
harmonies and foot-stomping
singalongs with first-rate tap dance and
poetic meditations on the power of
community. Brimming with hits from
artists such as Queen, Luther Vandross,
Sia, Paul Simon, Adele, Guns & Roses,
Avicii and Katy Perry to name but a few,
this is a pub like no other! An uplifting
celebration of community and friendship
with something for everyone - including
free beer! Enjoy 90 minutes of feel-good,
foot-stomping entertainment unlike
anything else in the West End.
The show kicked off its West End
journey in October 2021 and has
welcomed over 280,000 audience
members through the doors across over
1,000 performances. Following its last run
at the Arts Theatre from October 2021 to
April 2022, it received an Olivier
nomination for Best Entertainment or
Comedy Play and then went on to play in
Coventry as part of the City of Culture
Assembly Festival season and at the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The show
re-opened at the Arts Theatre in October
2022, and has continued to see many
sold-out shows, with loyal audiences
returning again and again. In 2023 the
show announced partnerships with
suicide prevention charity CALM (The
Campaign Against Living Miserably), and
in 2025 came together with Signature
Brew as the show’s Official Alcohol-Free
Beer Partner.
On behalf of the producers, Nic
Doodson says ‘we’re over the moon to be
extending The Choir of Man at the Arts
Theatre into 2026. When we first brought
the show to the West End, we couldn’t
have imagined the incredible journey it
would take. The way audiences have
embraced it – returning time and again –
has been truly humbling. It’s a real
privilege to continue sharing this
celebration of community, music and joy
night after night in the heart of London.’
