Internationally acclaimed and Australian born, Faulty Towers The Dining Experience returns to FRINGE WORLD for its sixth year with even more 5-star reviews on its plate. It's 'definitely worth getting off the couch for' (Stage Whispers).

Chaos greets audiences as soon as they walk through the door. In this fully immersive experience, the audience become diners in the infamous 'Faulty' restaurant, served a 3-course meal by Basil, Sybil and Manuel. Expect lashings of laughter, bowls full of spontaneity and as much audience participation as individual audience members want. And with 70% of the show improvised, no two performances are ever the same.

A true blend of ingenious comedy, a unique theatrical script and a delicious meal, this multi-sensory show is perfect for comedy fans, theatre fanatics and anyone who just fancies going out for a dinner they will never forget.

- 'Faulty Towers The Dining Experience will feed your need for world-class comedy, nourish your soul with howling laughter and have you begging the staff to extend your stay.' (Perth Now, Fringe World 2016)

Born in Brisbane in April 1997, Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is a worldwide hit, appearing in over 20 countries. With highlights in 2017 including tours in Europe, Scandinavia, the Caribbean, Asia and Australia, plus an ongoing residency in London's West End and a string of return visits to Fringe Festivals in Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and Edinburgh, it's clear that this is the most successful interactive comedy show of its kind.

It is a light-hearted comedy that's hosted in a huge range of venues including country ranches, vineyards, hotels, restaurants and, of course, theatre spaces and arts centres.
