The National Theatre will soon present a new production of Frank Galati’s Tony Award-winning adaptation of The Grapes of Wrath. In this video, watch a trailer for the new production.

The National Theatre has announced two new productions for its South Bank stages this autumn: the world premiere of Tanika Gupta’s A Tupperware of Ashes in the Dorfman theatre, and a new play by Alexander Zeldin inspired by Antigone called The Other Place in the Lyttelton theatre.

The Play That Goes Wrong recently celebrated its 7th birthday and is currently booking until Sunday 30 October 2022. In August 2021 the production became the longest ever running play at The Duchess Theatre and has now played over 2500 performances.

The Play That Goes Wrong, the Olivier Award-winning box office hit, today announces that a new-ish cast of some of the world's unluckiest actors will be at the Duchess Theatre from November 2021.

Follow the (fictional) Cornley Drama Society as they put on a 1920s murder mystery, 'The Murder at Haversham Manor'. As the title suggests, everything that can go wrong … does! As the accident prone thesps battle against all the odds to reach their final curtain call, hilarious results ensue!

Following three previously sold out tours, the production will open on Tuesday 13 July 2021 at Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury where it first premiered in 2014, before visiting Cheltenham, Bath, Salford, Nottingham, Eastbourne, Dartford, York, Woking, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Brighton and Aylesbury. Further dates soon to be announced.

The Play That Goes Wrong, the Olivier Award-winning box office hit, are today amazingly announcing a new booking period with tickets going on sale until 2 May 2021.

The Play That Goes Wrong have today released production images for the new cast who started on Tuesday 5th November 2019.

Awarded the 2014 WhatsOnStage Award for Best New Comedy, the 2015 Olivier Award for Best New Comedy and a Tony Award for the Broadway transfer, The Play That Goes Wrong continues to delight audiences in the West End. The show's success is a testament to the hard work and determination of a group of drama school graduates who became friends, set up a company under the name 'Mischief' and created an extraordinary body of work. The Play That Goes Wrong shows no signs of slowing down since its first performance at a London fringe venue with only four paying customers. Since then, it has played to an audience of over two million and now has productions in over 30 countries.
