Christmas Carol Goes Wrong

Christmas Carol Goes Wrong Theatre Breaks

Due to popular demand, this festive “Goes Wrong” is served up again by Mischief, at the Wyndham’s Theatre (because they probably broke the Apollo Theatre last year) for Christmas 2026 as The Cornley Amateur Drama Society return with tidings of chaos and joy and their version of Charles Dickens’ classic tale, A Christmas Carol.

CHRISTMAS CAROL GOES WRONG  smashes into the West End for 5 weeks only from 18 December 2026.

The Cornley crew battle miscommunication, delays to their set, actors missing in action and a growing feud over who will play the lead. It is a truly disastrous take on the much-loved classic Christmas story of Ebeneezer Scrooge and Cornley ‘s misfortunes wreak havoc yet again.

Don’t miss this Christmas catastrophe from Mischief, the multi award-winning company behind The Play That Goes Wrong, Peter Pan Goes Wrong and The Comedy About a Bank Robbery. It is hilarious. Starring original Mischief members of course!

Enjoy a festive slice of pure escapism at the worst production in Christmas past, present and yet to come!
