Only Fools and Horses the Musical

Join Rodney (or is it Dave?), Granddad, Del Boy and co for a musical treat that'll have you in fits of giggles all the way through. Only Fools and Horses the Musical is written by comedian and Fast Show creator Paul Whitehouse together with Jim Sullivan, the son of the original TV series' creator John Sullivan. John died in 2011 while working on this musical, and it has been wholly approved by the great man's Estate for us all to enjoy. There are 20 brand new show tunes to enjoy too, part-authored by Chas Hodges from the band Chas and Dave, also sadly missed. And there are oodles of in-jokes from the telly series, all the best ones we love so much.

The chandelier scene. Del Boy falling through the bar, Del Boy's poker face. Tony Angelino singing “Cwying”. The sex dolls. Trigger's broom. The auction. Which of them appear in this magically silly tribute to the sitcom? Come along and see for yourself, laugh until you cry, and sing along as the fun unfolds further than ever thanks to a bunch of hilarious new material. Welcome to Trotter's Independent Trading Company. We hope you enjoy the ride.

Surprisingly good
Went on the off chance and chose low-priced seats which were hard on our backs. A very helpful usherette found us some alternative seats for the second half. Music good and the show had a real feel-good factor.

Brilliant show
Great story such a good laugh & met Paul White House outside as he photobombed us ha ha !!
Joanne, 10 Mar 2023
A joy from start to finish
Even with the distant view from the seats in the gods, the show was excellent. The actor that plays Del on a Monday was superb; can't believe that anyone would play it better.
Angela, 07 Mar 2023
Great
Show was amazing I got ticket late veiw wasn’t great so decided to stand to get better veiw as I had back to the wall, after 30 min a steward came up and demanded I sat down! Seriously not bothering anyone but a jobsworth, still one of the best shows I’ve seen along with back to the future
David, 04 Mar 2023
All actors easily identifiable
Boycie and Marlene were perfect matches. The rest were close enough. Highly recommended.

hayley, 24 Feb 2023
She loved it! Highly highly recommended
Bought as a birthday present for my Mum, she's a regular theatre goer and admitted it wouldn't have been her first choice. Saying that it was one of her favourite shows - even said she'd go and see it again! If you're thinking of buying tickets I couldn't recommend highly enough!

Seats although slightly blocked stage on lefthand side we were still able to fully enjoy show. Excellent from start to finish with added interval entertainment from some audience nuisances eho were eventually removed from building. Staff were great in dealing with said nuisances.
Tracey, 17 Feb 2023
Fab show
If your an only fools and horses fan you will love the show, it was excellent would definitely recommend.
Tina, 10 Feb 2023
Excellent, a must see for any Only Fools & Horses fan
Whilst I'm a massive Only Fools fan, I was unsure how it could be made into a musical without losing the original story and humour that always made it an iconic tv program, especially without the original cast. I decided to book anyway and take my girlfriend for our anniversary and I am glad we did. It was a fantastic show, great actors who were absolutely spot on with the voices and mannerisms of each character, especially Rodney who sounded exactly like the original and Boyce got the laugh to a T, in fact all the cast were brilliant. Lots of iconic moments were captured in the show with a few other subtle references to other iconic storylines from the tv series. Overall, great show, great cast & acting, a must see for anyone but especially if you're an Only Fools fan. Finally we sat in the stalls row J and the seats were perfect.
Rob, 10 Feb 2023

What an amazing performance
This is the first time myself and partner have been to the theatre in London and I am so pleased we chose to see only fools and horses, and the free ticket upgraded just made the show even better. An absolutely fantastic performance, so funny and really entertaining. Highly recommend this show.
Sharon, 17 Oct 2022
Brilliant Show. A must see, even if you didn’t watch the TV series.
Terrific, most enjoyable show. Laugh a minute, great fun - “ Not now Grandpa!” “ This time next year we’ll be millionaires!” Great casting, music and scenes including the Chandelier & the Reliant Van! Thoroughly enjoyable, with laughter as you would expect, lifting the mood in these difficult times. FANTASTIC!! Well done everyone involved.
Alistair, 02 Oct 2022
Loved the show
Do not sit in the gallery the seating is not good
Andrea, 25 Sep 2022
Entertaining
I enjoyed the show.
Cherriel, 23 Sep 2022
Funny uplifting and entertaining throughout
I booked this on a whim as something light and enjoyable to see after mourning HM The Queen. The National anthem playing at the start was a lovely tribute and then onto the show. Brilliant characters, so alike to the real thing but they bought their own style and humour aswell. I didn't know what to expect really as such a fan of Only Fools the TV programme, but I loved it and so glad we went, it was lovely jubbly!
Amanda, 18 Sep 2022
So much better than expected
An absolutely superb show. As an Only Fools and Horses fan I knew I would love it but it was even better than expected. I attended with a friend from overseas who had never watched Only Fools and Horses and also absolutely loved the show. This is a must-see.
Kevin, 17 Sep 2022
A joy to watch
Superb theatre and wonderful show . The scene changes were slick and the lighting was magic.
Heather, 16 Sep 2022

Adrian, 09 Sep 2022
Lovely jubbly
Haven't laughed so much at the theatre! If you enjoy watching Only Fools and Horses you will enjoy the familiar gags that run through the show 😉
Denise, 01 Sep 2022
Not to be missed, laugh a minute.
The quality of the acting was second to none. It was like being in the Trotters front room on the TV show. Everything moved really smoothly and the set was pucker. Great nights fun went with my 12 and 14 year old sons and the loved it. 10-10. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Paddy, 25 Aug 2022
Fantastic funny and proper pucker
We had aisle seats in royal circle and the view was great. The show was funny and managed to include so many of the classic Fools and Horses moments. The characters looked and sounded so like the originals. We would definitely recommend to anyone as we had a great experience.
Beryl, 19 Aug 2022
Creative and modern
I thought It was great It was modern whilst still keeping the original theme of the show. I would of wanted the cast to ask the audience to sing along to the theme song at the end as it was that good and everyone knows that song
rachel, 13 Aug 2022
Brillliant, fun, lively and entertaining
What a fun show. Great cast who were totally believable and just like the original tv show. Del, Rodney, Trigger et Al all fantastic. Lovely story, good effects and great energy and entertainment.

Georgina, 26 Jul 2022
Very good production
A fan of the tv show I wasn’t sure how it could be turned into a stage production, I needn’t have been concerned. An excellent show with talented actors have turned Paul White house’s script into a smash loved it.
Richard, 26 Jul 2022

Thoroughly enjoyed the show Fabulous performance. Written featuring the classic golden moments from the TV series Lots of laughs Great cast
Donna, 15 Jul 2022
Got better in the second half
You could tell who the actors characters were but there was only one stand out actor and that was the one who plays Rodney because his voice and mannerisms were spot on
David, 14 Jul 2022
Ok not great
My wife and l came to see the show.l found it was ok but not great. The show was funny in places Boycie was well played and close to original uncle was very good well played Rodney was good delboy was poor trig was good .the story was ok it was ok but you didn't walk away with that buzz some musicals give
Ronald, 12 Jul 2022
Brilliant
Came from dundee 600 miles away to see the show it was fantastic...so good..so funny a delight...
Graham, 08 Jul 2022
very funny and true to the original show
Shame that the stewards didn't handle at all well the situation of the drunken and rude lady in the audience. Thankfully, people from the audience managed the situation. The theatre's personel requires better training to treat these situations!
Robin Justin, 28 Jun 2022
Fantastic Production!
This is a must watch for all that remember the all time classic series. Music was fantastic as was the story line was nostalgic and the comedy was brilliant. A must watch!

Great Fun
We went to this for my son’s 12th birthday as he is a massive only fools fan. This didn’t disappoint. Great thinks to the original tv series and very funny at times. Cast were excellent and production was of a good standard. We sat in row A of the gallery which was comfortable and had good views. Haymarket theatre is lovely and staff are friendly and helpful.

A must see for anyone who has seen only fools and horses through the years
Carl, 28 May 2022
A giggle a minute!
Loved this show even though some of the script was plucked from the TV series, it was great to have the stories played out live by some of the best actors. Don’t feel hard done by if you have the Alternate Del Boy, he was brilliant as were the entire cast. The second half was a laugh a minute leaving me at the end of an enormous feeling of happiness.
Russell, 26 May 2022
Amazing show
One of the best shows I have ever seen and I have seen over 20 including some in Las Vegas. Would recommend to anyone to go and see amazing cast and show

Awsome Show
A must see. Amazing actors story and so much fun.
Amelia, 11 May 2022
A great night out!
This was full of feel good music with great performers and a fab atmosphere. It probably helps if you have seen the programmes as lots of ‘in’ jokes….that added to the enjoyment for us!
Annie, 11 May 2022
Live entertainment at it's best!
It brought together lots of well known snippets of the TV programme into any evenings live entertainment. Brilliant show for fans and newcomers alike!! Well done to the cast and crew and musicians alike. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Roger, 26 Apr 2022
Best show seen for ages
Loved all the ‘dell boy references for officianados
June, 21 Apr 2022
Fabulous
Side splitting from start to finish. Bought these tickets for my wife's birthday as she is from London. I lived in London for 20 years and appreciated the humour better than a lot of people around us. Although I expected the show to be professional we did think it may be a bit twee but none of it ! Absolutely brilliant from start to finish and may even go again !! Long may it run 😁👍
james, 20 Apr 2022
Engaging and funny!
The show was excellent. We went as a family and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Louise, 19 Apr 2022

Really fun show if you liked the TV Comedy. The acting was superb. Really enjoyable evening.
Shelina, 31 Mar 2022
Fabulous loved every minute ❤
Great show a barrel of laughs.
Emma, 27 Mar 2022
You must go and enjoy all those funny moments again
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.
Martin, 24 Mar 2022
Light and very funny hearty entertainment
Exceptional performance, had me in stitches. Very true to the sitcom and will want you revisit the tv show again
