Thanks, found a front row seat going spare for £20, so have booked that. There are a lot of decent single seats about. It just takes a bit of clicking through dates.

Thanks david for the tip. Two great seats for £30 each on a Saturday night is just the deal I was waiting for.

Thanks david. Picked up a single ticket in row D of the stalls for a Saturday matinee for £15. I'd resigned myself to not going after seeing the prices originally. Can't complain about £15!

Cleese also said that his stage adaptation of Life of Brian was also due in 2024 on the West End, so I wonder if this has replaced it? He's still talking about LoB, so it sounds like it's still on the way!

New video with John Cleese. Adam Jackson-Smith imitates Cleese's inflection on the delivery really well.

Cleese has always said he is short of money because of his ex wives but he has also said he spends £17.000 on Beaty therapies to look young. Hence the stage adaptations coming in thick and fast. Good luck to him, his original FT is a classic.

John's three or so divorces cost him a lot of money so he did his one man show and the Phython 02 shows would have been a nice earner too. I think he said he wanted to spend more time writing but had to do his one man shows to pay for the alimony. Or possibly there had been a big dent in his bank balance and he wanted to restore it.
John was open about his hair transplants and admitted in an interview promoting A Fis Called Wanda all his teeth were implants which was 35 years ago plus so he's spent on things like this before. He is 84 now so if he can afford to pay for these treatments and it aids his health good luck to him.

I booked to see it as there seems to be some dynamic pricing going on for single seats. I have low expectations but I least I know it'll be funny.

We have tickets for this, sadly not with a nice discount/good seat like I've seen mentioned here, haha, but very excited to see this and hoping for a really good laugh ^^
Looking at the little clip on youtube, it looks like the actor will be doing a good job at being Basil.
