YES, PRIME MINISTER

Yes, Prime Minister

“Yes, Prime Minister” was a virtual sell-out in Singapore.So we added an additional performance to avoid disappointing our patrons. The enduring popularity of “Yes Prime Minister” was reflected in the need to add an extra performance for our production in Singapore to cope with demand for tickets.

Opening Night in Singapore

No one could have asked for better opening-night setting for the play on May 8th than Raffles Jubilee Hall Theatre. 

Very Raffles-very Chequers! And none of us could have asked for a more responsive and appreciative audience.

Eden Hall lunch

One of the great pleasures of producing our plays in Singapore is the now customary, informal luncheon for the cast, stage management and producers at the residency of the British High Commissioner, Eden Hall. 

Generously hosted by Anthony and Julie Phillipson (although H.E. was away on this occasion!) it is always a most pleasurable event and this time was no exception. 

Thank you to our fabulous hostess!

YES, PRIME MINISTER IN KUALA LUMPUR

The Shananand Auditorium at the Temple of the Fine Arts was the venue for “Yes, Prime Minister” in KL; our ninth production in the city but the first in this excellent theatre. 

Amongst several distinguished guests at performances, we were especially proud to welcome the Prime Minister of Malaysia, the Honourable Dato’ Najib Razak. 

British Theatre Playhouse would also like to express its appreciation for the great support of so many of our productions in KL by Y.A.M. Tunku Naquiyuddin who organised a Charity Performance in aid of Yayasan Tunku Naquiyuddin Foundation. 

Our excellent KL Promoter was Mr Nicholas Pinder who, with Roslan Wilkinson, ensured a most successful and enjoyable week. 

And last but not least, the British Theatre Playhouse and HOMME Productions would like to thank Mr Ray Kyles, Acting British High Commissioner to Malaysia for hosting a ‘Welcome Reception’ for YES, PRIME MINISTER cast and company members on Tuesday 20th May at the residence of the British High Commissioner.
