Theatre on the Bay, Cape Town
The riotously funny comedy that has conquered London and New York all over again

Winner of two Drama Desk Awards | Nominated for six Tony Awards

South African production directed by Alan Swerdlow

Nominated for a Fleur Du Cap Best Director Award for "God of Carnage".
Naledi Award Winner for "Travels With My Aunt"

Bernard, a successful architect in Paris, thinks he can easily cope with his three fiancées - one American, one Italian and one German. It's all a question of timetables and a reliable, long-suffering housekeeper who reluctantly plays the role of romantic air-traffic controller.

But when Bernard's long lost cousin Robert arrives, things start to get turbulent. Schedules change, flights are delayed and the new, turbo-charged Boeing Aircraft is introduced and chaos ensues in this whirl of mayhem and matchmaking.

One of the biggest hits in London in 2007, the revival of BOEING-BOEING, Marc Camoletti's 1960s farce about a man juggling affairs with three airline stewardesses of different nationalities, transferred to Broadway in May 2008.  It starred Mark Rylance, who was nominated for an Olivier Award for his performance as Robert in the London production.  The cast also featured Bradley Whitford, best known for his role as a presidential aide on The West Wing, Kathryn Hahn, best known for her work on NBC's Crossing Jordan and Sex and the City's Sarah Jessica Parker.
