Only Fools and Horses the Musical description
Only Fools and Horses The Musical – Cushty!
Trigger's dodgy briefcases. Del Boy and Rodney break the chandelier. The broom gag. Batman and Robin costumes... oh, the memories. 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's due in theatreland and the anticipation is mounting fast. Don't miss this hilariously silly, delightfully fun show.
Add the brilliant Paul Whitehouse, who wrote The Fast Show (suits you, Sir!) and is apparently Jonny Depp's favourite ever comedian, to the mix and you're in for even more of a treat. He's the co-writer along with Jim Sullivan, the son of the sitcom's original creator John Sullivan. And the show takes place at a stunningly lovely venue, the magnificent Theatre Royal Haymarket, from February 2019.
The show features 20 dazzlingly silly new tunes and the late Chas Hodges, from the Cockney duo Chas and Dave, played a part in composing them. John Sullivan died in 2011, while working on the show, but it has been wholeheartedly, fully endorsed by his Estate.
The original TV characters were played by Sir David Jason, Nicholas Lyndhurst and Lennard Pearce. For the musical Paul Whitehouse plays the part of Grandad, and you can bet your bottom dollar that'll be a giggle. Tom Bennett plays Del Boy and Ryan Hutton plays Rodney.
The musical combines classic scenes from the original TV show with new material and new gags. It also stars old favourites Boycie, Trigger, Marlene and Denzil. Set in the year 1989 the plot sees Del and Rodney in love with Raquel and Cassandra against a Peckham landscape that's changing fast. The writers have been as faithful as possible to the feel of the series, but have also crowbarred in some contemporary issues in a seriously clever way.
The dazzling legacy of Only Fools and Horses is being admirably carried on thanks to this heart-warming and extremely funny show. It's packed with favourite moments from the TV show, including the infamous chandelier scene. Laugh? You'll laugh yourself silly. What a great British treat.

This was one of the worse shows I have seen. The acting was dreadful and the storyline was dull and depressing. In fact there wasn’t much of a storyline, it was a bit all over the place with poor copied clips of the TV show and most were not even funny. The actors seemed as if they were just going through the motions and didn’t click together.

This show is very enjoyable and includes many of the funny moments from the TV series. The changing of the scenery is like watching a remote controlled jigsaw puzzle, very clever. MEN, if you are seated in the Royal Circle allow at least 3 minutes to get to the toilets. Ladies only have a very short walk.

Only Fools and Horses the Musical is a great night of nostalgia and fun. The story and characters remain true to the original and Rodney, Del Boy and Granda are great, as indeed are the other cast members. The singing and dancing routines are well choreographed and each word can be heard clearly. By the end you find yourself falling in love with the characters all over again and you don’t want it to end! Thank you for a great night!

Like many I have watched Only Fool and Horses, when it first came out and over the years on re-runs. I wasn't sure what to expect from such an iconic TV programme being put to music. This has been done in the best possible way, the show was fantastic, the story line had echo's of many of some of the most memorable and funny parts of the TV series and all the characters were true to how they were originally portrayed. It was funny, entertaining, there was a spot of ad libbing which had everyone laughing including the cast and the audience was made to feel a part of the show. I went with my 12 year old grand daughter and she loved it so much she wants to come back to see it again and I would have to agree I would happily watch this show again. Well Done to everyone involved in this production, you hit the nail on the head it was lovey jubbly.

Review: ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES at The Theatre Royal, Haymarket
by Phil Willmott | Thursday, February 21 2019, 20:07
They seem an odd match, the opulent, elegant Theatre Royal, Haymarket and the BBC TV comedy Only Fools and Horses which dominated the television schedules in the late 1980s.
