By many an airmile the funniest show on the London stage...Impossible to stop laughing.
Daily Telegraph
Bernard, a successful architect living in Paris, thought he could easily cope with his three air hostess fiancees. It was all a question of timetables and a reliable, long-suffering housekeeper who reluctantly has the role of romantic air-traffic controller. When old school chum Robert arrives, Bernard relishes the chance to show his wide-eyed friend 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.
A dream cast...Takes theatre into the stratosphere.
The Guardian
Translated by Beverley Cross from Mark Camoletti's original, Matthew Warchus' production is designed by Rob Howell, with lighting by Hugh Vanstone, original music by Claire van Kampen and sound by Simon Baker. The curtain call was devised by Bruno Tonioli.
Sonia Friedman Productions, Act Productions, Matthew Byam Shaw and Robert G Bartner present “BOEING-BOEING”.
Absolutely terrific...Matthew Warchus's stylish revival is something approaching sublime thanks to a cast on tip-top form.
