Boeing-Boeing
Until 5 January 2008
a comedy by Marc Camoletti and Beverley Cross
Directed by Matthew Warchus
If you haven't seen Boeing-Boeing yet then you're missing out on 'the
funniest show in London'‚ (Daily Telegraph) which has delighted
audiences and critics alike since opening!
'The most deliriously funny flight of your life‚' Mail on Sunday
Jean Marsh (Upstairs, Downstairs) is Bertha, the long-suffering
housekeeper who reluctantly has the role of romantic air-traffic
controller for Bernard played by Kevin R McNally (Pirates of the
Caribbean), a successful architect living in Paris. He thinks he can
easily cope with his three air hostess fiancées so when old school
friend Robert played by Neil Stuke (Game On) arrives he relishes the
chance to show his wide-eyed visitor his first class operation at work.
Unfortunately, schedules change, flights are delayed and a new
turbo-charged Boeing aircraft is introduced; then chaos ensues in this
hysterical whirl of mayhem and matchmaking.
With a cast that includes Jennifer Ellison (Brookside, Chicago),
Tracy-Ann Oberman (Eastenders) and Elena Roger (Evita) as the amorous
air hostesses Boeing-Boeing is 'brilliantly funny‚ Independent on
Sunday.

Bernard, a successful architect living in Paris, thinks he can easily cope with his three air-hostess fiancées. It is all a question of timetables and a reliable, long-suffering housekeeper who reluctantly has the role of romantic air-traffic controller. When old school friend Robert arrives, Bernard relishes the chance to show his wide-eyed visitor his first-class operation at work. Unfortunately, schedules change, flights are delayed and a new turbo-charged Boeing aircraft is introduced: chaos ensues in this hysterical whirl of mayhem and matchmaking.
Originally opening in the mid-1960s, Boeing-Boeing was one of the most successful comedies of its time. Matthew Warchus's new production of this classic comedy is one of the most enjoyable and mischievously funny shows in the West End for years.
BOEING-BOEING is directed by Matthew Warchus, one of UK's leading directors who has had numerous critical hits at the National, RSC, West End and Broadway. Designs are by Rob Howell.
