Only Fools and Horses The Musical
By Jim Sullivan & Paul Whitehouse
Synopsis
TV’s Only Fools and Horses delighted several generations and still rates as one of Britain’s funniest ever, best-loved, most often quoted sitcoms. Now it heads to the Eventim Apollo for a strictly limited Christmas season, starring Paul Whitehouse as Grandad and Vinnie Jones makes his stage debut as Danny Driscoll. Don’t miss this hilariously silly, delightfully fun show.
Only Fools and Horses The Musical – The Story
Only Fools and Horses The Musical follows market trader Del Boy Trotter, his brother Rodney, and their granddad as they strive to become millionaires. Set in Peckham during the yuppie invasion of London, Del Boy embarks on the rocky road to finding true love, while Rodney and Cassandra prepare for their wedding, and even Trigger has a date (with a person!). Boycie and Marlene give parenthood one last try, and Grandad finally decides it’s time to sort out his piles. With plenty of humour, heart, and nostalgia, the musical brings the Trotters’ misadventures to life as they chase their dreams and dodge disaster.
