I'm Sorry, Prime Minister

play

From the BAFTA Award-winning co-creator of Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister, Jonathan Lynn, comes the long-awaited final chapter of British political satire I’M SORRY, PRIME MINISTER at the Apollo Theatre – and it is as cunning, cutting, and catastrophically funny as ever.

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 theatre tickets with LOVEtheatre today!

What is I’m Sorry, Prime Minister about?

Jim Hacker 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, 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…”?
