About Only Fools and Horses

It’s all kicking off in Peckham, where the yuppie invasion in London is in full swing. Love is in the air as Del Boy embarks on a bumpy quest to find his true love, Rodney and Cassandra are getting ready to tie the knot, and even Trigger is preparing for a date…with a person. Meanwhile, Boycie and Marlene are taking one last shot at parenthood, and Grandad is reflecting on his life… maybe it’s finally time he gets his piles sorted!

There is not a lot to be added to what has been said about  this much loved TV comedy series. So fans will be over-joyed to hear that comedy legend Paul Whitehouse has teamed up with Jim Sullivan, the son of the original writer of the TV series, John, with musical contributions from Chas n Dave, to write and produce a script and score to honour the comic legacy of this British institution with a home-grown British Musical spectacular.

Whitehouse takes centre stage as Grandad, ubut for the London run the cast will be joined by footballing legend Vinnie Jones as Danny Driscoll.

Sam Luton plays Del Boy and Tom Major will play Rodney in this unique showstopper.

Only Fools and Horses the musical features cherished material from the TV series, with all the laughs, dodgy dealings and unforgettable moments to boot.

Take a drive down memory lane with Theatre Breaks, to reacquaint yourselves with Britain’s most loveable rogues, and experience the classic comedy brought to life once again through an ingenious and hilarious original score; an idea so inexplicably pukka, it surely proves the old adage that he who dares wins!

Featuring your favourite characters, the beloved theme tune and an array of comic songs full of character and charm, audiences will enjoy a right old knees-up with Only Fools and Horses the Musical.
