Review: PETER PAN GOES WRONG, Lyric Theatre
Written by Mischief trio Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields and directed by Adam Meggido, Peter Pan Goes Wrong brings the Cornley Polytechnic gang back to the West End, this time taking on the “traditional Christmas vignette,” definitely not a pantomime, as Director Chris Bean emphatically informs the audience.

Laughter Abounds In Belmont University's Zany and Uproarious THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG
That laughter you hear coming from within the Troutt Theatre on the Belmont University campus this weekend and next should probably come with a trigger warning. For no matter how rollicking, rambunctious and uproarious it truly is, it should be pointed out that what is transpiring on that stage over two weekends is, indeed, the stuff of post-traumatic stress – or, not to put too fine a point on it, it would be if the shenanigans weren’t brilliantly scripted, infinitely well-rehearsed and just the way it should be.

Review: DE KOMEDIE OVER EEN BANK OVERVAL at De Goudse Schouwburg!
What did our critic think of DE KOMEDIE OVER EEN BANK OVERVAL at De Goudse Schouwburg?The Comedy about a Bank Robbery. A play created by Mischief Theatre (script: Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, Henry Shields) , who are also responsible for the Olivier Award-winnig show The Play That Goes Wrong. The Dutch adaptation is in hands of Pretpakhuis, in a direction (and translation) by Jon van Eerd. Let me start by saying this may or may not be your genre, this kind of physical comedy is extremely subject to personal taste and I’m sure more than half of the audience whole-heartedly will disagree with the below.
