Deck the halls with chaos and laughter! From the award-winning team behind The Play That Goes Wrong and The Comedy About Spies, Christmas Carol Goes Wrong is a disastrously funny take on Charles Dickens’ classic festive tale. Bumbling ghosts, creaky sets and actors who are more muppet than masters of the craft… this “Eber-knees-up in the West End” (WhatsOnStage) from Mischief Theatre returns for a strictly limited season this Christmas at the Wyndham’s Theatre, just a short walk from Trafalgar Square.
What Is Christmas Carol Goes Wrong About?
The members of the Cornley Amateur Dramatic Society are ready for their latest production, and this time, it’s bringing good tidings… or maybe bad timing, forgotten lines and absolute chaos! Join them as they struggle to put on A Christmas Carol, when everything seems to be working against them. Plagued by miscommunication, forgotten lines, and actors battling over who gets to star as Scrooge, will they make it to the final bows? Will Tiny Tim and Marley remember their cues? Or will the audience be left saying “Bah, Humbug”?
