Adelaide Fringe review - Faulty Towers, The Dining Experience

04 Mar, 2008 02:00 PM
The Faulty Towers Dining Experience began outside the restaurant in classic style: Manuel locked himself outside and Cybil had to come and sort out the situation and make sure that all the customers got a nut each while also ensuring that Basil found his table list. The fun had begun.

The theatre surrounded the dining area, popping up everywhere to surprise the unsuspecting audience. Basil, Cybil and Manuel all looked amazingly similar to the well-known TV characters and their ability to stay in character throughout the audience interaction was superb.

The soup was served quickly and was enjoyed until Cybil announced that the chef had lost his teeth in the soup and could we all check our bowls...! They were found and Manuel continued to entertain with his misunderstandings of English, which included 'waiting on a table' by shifting the food and wine so there was room for him to 'wait' on the table.

I now know exactly how it feels to be harassed and stared down by Basil, waited on by Manuel and listen to Cybill's shrill calls to her husband. It was complete with Faulty action from fire drills, secrets from Cybill and runaway rats. The food was delicious, contrary to Cybill's indications that it all came from a can. Being a part of the Faulty Towers Dining Experience is something I would thoroughly recommend. Sarah's Cafe @ Where Inn until March 12.
