The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

T1018223310
Based on the Sunday Times bestseller which inspired one of this century's most treasured films, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel takes us on a journey to India with an eclectic group of British retirees as they embark on a new life. The luxury residence is far from the opulence they were promised, but as their lives begin to intertwine and they embrace the vibrancy of modern-day India, they are charmed in unexpected and life-changing ways. The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is a joyous, feel-good comedy about taking risks, finding love and embracing second chances, even in the most surprising of places.

Reviews

User Review: 22Oct22: Lazy scriptwriting, stilted delivery by some of the cast and just boring. Left at the interval.

User Review: 20Oct22: Brilliant, feel good play. It holds true to the film but each character's story is subtly different to that in the film,which makes for some interesting story lines.

User Review: 19Oct22: This was the worst, most boring show I’ve seen for ages at the Churchill. Such a shame with brilliant actors. Nothing like the film. Very disappointing.
