From the BAFTA Award-winning co-creator of Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Ministe,  Jonathan Lynn, comes the long-awaited final chapter of British political satire, and it is as cunning, cutting, and catastrophically funny as ever. Jim Hacker (played by national treasure Griff Rhys Jones) is back — older, but perhaps not wiser, and still utterly baffled by the real world. Hoping for a quiet retirement at the tranquil Hacker College, Oxford, Jim instead finds himself facing the ultimate modern crisis: cancelled by the college committee. Enter the delightfully devious Sir Humphrey Appleby (played by the acclaimed Clive Francis), who has lost none of his love for bureaucracy, Latin phrases, and well-timed obstruction. Can Humphrey out manoeuvre the meddling students, the Fellowship, and reality itself? Or is it finally time to say, "I'm Sorry, Prime Minister..."? Brimming with razor-sharp wit, nostalgic brilliance, and more doublespeak than a press briefing, this is political comedy at its most timeless —and timely. For a night of laughter, legacy, and one last glorious round of red tape,  book your I'm Sorry, Prime Minister tickets today!

Matthew Bourne’s vivid storytelling combines with one of the most passionately dramatic scores ever written, with music by Terry Davies featuring Rodion Shchedrin’s Carmen Suite (after Bizet’s Carmen), to create a dance thriller like no other.
