I'm Sorry, Prime Minister

About I'm Sorry, Prime Minister

I'm Sorry, Prime Minister at Nimax Theatres brings Jonathan Lynn's long-awaited final chapter of British political satire to the stage. From the BAFTA Award-winning co-creator of Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister, it follows Jim Hacker, played by Griff Rhys Jones, as he tries to settle into retirement at Hacker College, Oxford and instead faces a college committee cancellation.

Sir Humphrey Appleby, played by Clive Francis, returns with his love of bureaucracy, Latin phrases and obstruction intact. The production is a stage sequel to the television comedies, with political manoeuvring, student meddling and familiar doublespeak at its centre.

Key facts: 20 January to 25 April 2026.
