Olivier Award-winning company Mischief Theatre take over the West End with their latest chaotic comedy, which plays at the Criterion Theatre. The Comedy About a Bank Robbery sees inept criminal masterminds attempt to steal a valuable diamond from under a slumbering security guard’s nose.

Dominating the West End with the spectacularly successful The Play That Goes Wrong, as well as Peter Pan Goes Wrong and Mischief Movie Night, Mischief Theatre's newest comedy promises to be as chaotic as the rest. Playing at London’s Criterion Theatre, the Olivier Award-winning company presents The Comedy About a Bank Robbery, which sees a group of unlikely criminals haphazardly attempt to rob a bank.
Directed by Mark Bell, the comedy is a typical tale of a heist gone wrong. Diverting from the Cornley Polytechnic Society’s disastrous attempts at staging well-known plays, Mischief Theatre present us with a new style of farce that promises to deliver the same amount of hilarity. Following eight inept criminal masterminds in their efforts to sneakily steal a very large diamond, plenty of mishaps are guaranteed, as the greedy group attempt to take it from under a sleeping security guard’s nose. A perfect blend of pranks, slapstick and side-splitting entertainment, The Comedy About a Bank Robbery promises an abundance of laugh-out-loud moments.
