Boeing-Boeing cover

M2 F4 Revived in the West End in 2007, Boeing-Boeing is a 1960s French farce adapted for the English-speaking stage. Self-styled Parisian lothario Bernard has three fiancees, each beautiful airline hostesses with frequent "layovers". There's American Gloria, German Gretchen and Italian Gabriella. He keeps "one up, one down and one pending" until unexpected schedule changes bring all three to Paris and his apartment at the same time. Bernard's old school friend Robert, a visitor from the provinces, and his housekeeper Bertha, attempt to diffuse the inevitable chaos.

This is, by many an airmile, the funniest show on the London stage. Charles Spencer, Daily Telegraph I cannot remember experiencing a West End evening of such sheer, silly, comic pleasure." - Nicholas de Jongh, Evening Standard Fasten your seatbelts for the most deliriously funny flight of your life. - Georgina Brown, Mail on Sunday
