Peter Pan Goes Wrong

Mischief Theatre, the creators behind the award winning show The Play That Goes Wrong, is back to the London West End at the Lyric Theatre with another riotous play, Peter Pan Goes Wrong.

The members of the Cornley Drama Society are back on stage with a spin on a timeless classic. Peter Pan Goes Wrong, a hilarious theatrical production, promises to keep you entertained with its slapstick humour and playful mishaps as the chaos unfolds. 

What is Peter Pan Goes Wrong about?

Get ready to be at the receiving end of a tsunami of silliness. Produced by Mischief Theatre, the team behind the hit comedy The Play That Goes Wrong, this show is a hilarious twist on the classic tale of Peter Pan with a group of amateur theatre goers trying to produce their own version of the story.

The play begins innocently enough, with the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society struggling to get through the opening scene of Peter Pan. As the name suggests, everything that can go wrong does go wrong, leading to a series of hilarious mishaps. Soon enough, it becomes clear that the cast and crew are completely out of their depth as props go missing, sets collapse, and actors miss their cues.

The result is a non-stop barrage of physical comedy and witty one-liners that will leave you gasping for air. 

Where is the play showing?

Peter Pan Goes Wrong is playing at the Lyric Theatre, located on Shaftesbury Avenue. The closest Tube station is Piccadilly Circus (on the Piccadilly and Bakerloo lines)
