Based on the classic British TV series
4-19 November 2011 Earl Arts Centre presented by Encore Theatre Company
Listen very carefully, I shall say this only once: the original production played to packed houses at the London Palladium so book early as this glorious stage adaptation of the hugely popular British TV series is guaranteed to leave you helpless with laughter.
Renee, Edith, Michelle, Herr Flick, Helga, Yvette, LeClerc and the Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies are all there, conveniently speaking English with peculiar accents.
If you thought that Adolf Hitler should have been blown up, this is your opportunity to see a number of blow-up Hitlers. You can also ogle Mimi, Yvette and Helga if that is your inclination, while empathizing with the hapless Renee as he struggles to maintain his equilibrium in war-torn France.
Wondering about the cockatoo? Then you hopefully saw Encore Theatre Company’s production. All was revealed.
