The Nation’s Favourite Sitcom On Stage

Only Fools and Horses was voted Britain's best sitcom in a 2004 poll, and time hasn’t changed our love for the Trotters of Peckham. It has inspired spin-offs The Green Green Grass and Rock and Chips, and some of its sketches remain the most quoted ever including Del Boy’s tumble through the bar, the infamous chandelier accident, and Batman and Robin.

This hit musical adaptation first opened in the West End in February 2019, where it played at Theatre Royal Haymarket Only Fools and Horses the Musical was confirmed to be making its way up West as a brand new musical in October 2018 and opened to huge audience and critical acclaim in February 2019.

Who wrote Only Fools and Horses the Musical?

Only Fools and Horses the Musical keeps it in the family, with the sitcom's creator John Sullivan’s son, Jim Sullivan, co-writing the book with comedian Paul Whitehouse. Whitehouse also starred as Grandad in the West End production to great acclaim.

Music and lyrics are by Sullivan, Whitehouse, and Chas Hodges from Chas & Dave, who were also the writers of the television show's iconic theme tune.
