It’s like painting the Forth Bridge, as soon as you finish you start again. It’s only been a couple of months since the Piccadilly Hotel closed up shop at the Noel Coward Theatre when ‘The Comedy About Spies’ played its final performance (let’s hope it comes back one day) but it is no rest for the wicked for Mischief Comedy, the masters of funny, as they present their second new production of 2025 ‘Christmas Carol Goes Wrong’.   Having premiered as a BBC Festive special back

So, it turns out that going wrong isn’t always a bad thing. Who would have thought that a little play about a drama company trying to put on a play when everything that could go wrong does exactly that would become one of the most successful stage comedies around? But here we are. That little show that started its life in a pub theatre is now a huge hit. It’s about to celebrate its eighth birthday and has become the longest running show ever to play in London’s Duchess Theatr

‘You can’t please everyone’ It’s a saying that most people have probably heard before, and many people probably do fall into the idea of being a ‘people pleaser’, but is it actually possible to please everyone? Well, that is exactly what Charlie Russell, well known for being a part of the original Mischief Theatre team, set out to do with her debut solo fringe show ‘Charlie Russell Aims To Please’. Taking suggestions from the audience gathered in the small but cosy Pleasance

Over the years, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival has acted as a launchpad for many productions and performers that are now household names with many fringe goers able to say, ‘I was there when’. Looking back to 2009, you may have stumbled across a small show in a small venue called ‘Lights Camera Improvise’, performed by a group called The Scat Pack. And from those humble beginnings, the show has changed name, the company has changed names and it is now one of the best-known com

The show must go on. It’s an age old saying in the world of theatre, and it’s one that celebrates the hard-working individuals who do just that; ensure that the show can indeed go on. Understudies and swings are perhaps among the most needed members of a theatrical company, for they can cover multiple roles and are able to step in at the drop of a hat. That being said, the understudies (for reasons that I will never understand) are sometimes underappreciated, and some people
