Mischief Theatre is a British theatre company that was founded in 2008 by a group of students from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art in West London, and directed by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, and Henry Shields. [1] The group originally began by doing improvised comedy shows, but by 2012, they expanded into comedic theatrical performances that include choreographed routines, jokes, and stunts. [2]

Contents

The company is primarily known for their comedic performances as the fictional theatre company, The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society, enacting amateur performances that go wrong. Works by the company includes the award-winning 2012 stage play The Play That Goes Wrong and the BBC television series The Goes Wrong Show . Several of the stage performances by the company have been shown in the West End of London, and also in theaters throughout the United Kingdom and across North America and Europe.

History

Mischief Theatre was formed in 2008 by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, and Henry Shields, while the three were studying in a drama foundation course at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. [3] The founders selected the company's members, a majority of which were attending the same course, including Dave Hearn, Nancy Zamit, Bryony Corrigan, and Niall Ransome. [4] The company conducted its first performance, Let's See What Happens, at The Questors Studio Theatre in July 2008, [5] which they later performed at The Edinburgh Festival the following month.

In 2012, Lewis, Sayer, and Shields devised the script for The Play That Goes Wrong , originally titled The Murder Before Christmas [6] , a comedic play based on real-life accidents and problems that can occur in stage productions. With the play, the company branched into choreographed performances, including stage combat, stunts, and staged technical malfunctions. The play premiered in London later that year, went on multiple UK tours, and was featured at the 2015 Royal Variety Performance show. Lewis, Sayer, and Shields continued to devise new shows for Mischief Theatre, based on both improvisational comedy and scripted performances, including Lights! Camera! Improvise!, [7] Late Night Impro Fight, [8] and Mischief Movie Night.

The play Peter Pan Goes Wrong made its premiere at the Pleasance Theatre in London in December 2013 before touring the UK in 2014. The production transferred to the West End in London at the Apollo Theatre for a Christmas season run in 2015. [9] In 2016, Mischief Theatre was approached by the BBC to conduct a televised Christmas special consisting of an adaptation of the stage play. The Peter Pan Goes Wrong adaptation proved a success, with the BBC later commissioning the company to develop a new Christmas special in 2017, A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong.

On 1 April 2020, Mischief Theatre began a weekly podcast titled "Mischief Makers", which focused on the members of the troupe. [10] During the COVID-19 pandemic, Mischief Theatre put on improvisational comedy shows (Mischief Movie Night) in open-air venues from late August to early September. [11] They briefly took the show to the Vaudeville Theatre in December before national lockdown procedures caused venues to close, forcing their planned schedule to be cut short. To compensate for this, the company conducted their show online, under the title Mischief Movie Night In. [12] [13]

The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society

The company is most well known for their series of "Goes Wrong" productions wherein they portray the fictional Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society, struggling to perform amateur shows as they slowly fall apart. In-universe, the troupe is composed of university students who spend their free time outside of classes producing shows, though in recent years, their televised work has been supported by the BBC. [14] For non-European audiences, they are presented as the Cornley University Drama Society.

The characters are maintained across all of the company's "Goes Wrong" productions (with the exception of Magic Goes Wrong ), and their personalities are fleshed out over time. Members of Mischief therefore portray their Cornley characters while also portraying the characters of whatever play they are doing in-universe.

Chris Bean

Chris Bean (originated by Henry Shields) is Cornley's director and primary lead actor. At the helm of most of the troupe's often complicated productions, he is consistently exasperated by his fellow members and the mistakes that inevitably happen, though he is not above the occasional slip-up as well. He views his work as extremely serious and gets hot-headed when others regard it as silly and fun.

Robert Grove

Robert Grove (originated by Henry Lewis) is Cornley's wannabe lead actor, who is frequently at odds with Chris over leading roles. He is bold and brash, believing that the key to a good performance is to simply be louder than everyone else. His niece Lucy is introduced in Peter Pan Goes Wrong and he is often shown as being incredibly critical of her performance.

Dennis Tyde

Dennis Tyde (originated by Jonathan Sayer) is a supporting player within the troupe, though his inability to remember his lines often means he is relegated to playing objects rather than people. The Play That Goes Wrong establishes his stage fright and embarrassment over mistakes, but in succeeding productions he has been characterized more by his extreme forgetfulness and obliviousness instead.

Sandra Wilkinson

Sandra Wilkinson (originated by Charlie Russell) is Cornley's lead actress. Like Chris, she is a straight man, often getting annoyed when her fellow actors make mistakes, but is not immune to them. She has a habit of sneaking seductive looks to the audience or camera, which can undermine her previous dialogue or her character in general. Her love life with a few of her fellow actors becomes a recurring plot point across productions.

Jonathan Harris

Jonathan Harris (originated by Greg Tannahill) is a supporting player within the company who often juggles several roles. He plays the lead in Peter Pan Goes Wrong, but in A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong and from then on, his bit roles are characterized by his inability to perform properly due to certain circumstances. He is involved in a few love triangles across the Goes Wrong productions.

Max Bennett

Max Bennett (originated by Dave Hearn) is another supporting player who often gets distracted by the audience's reactions. He is usually cast in supporting roles, despite being one of the troupe's best actors. Along with Dennis, he is one of the kindest and most innocent members of the troupe, most evident in subplots revolving around his ability as an actor or his love life.

Annie Twilloil

Annie Twilloil (originated by Nancy Zamit) is initially introduced as Cornley's stage manager in The Play That Goes Wrong, but is eventually promoted to supporting actress in subsequent productions. Like Jonathan, she tends to juggle several roles in a single production, and often plays men as well.

Trevor Watson

Trevor Watson (originated by Rob Falconer) is Cornley's technical director who later doubles as stage manager when Annie becomes an actress. Although he works behind the scenes, he always somehow makes his presence known; he also occasionally steps up when the troupe is in need of additional actors. He is portrayed by Rob Falconer in The Play That Goes Wrong, but in subsequent productions is played by Chris Leask.

Vanessa Wilcock-Wynn-Carraway

Vanessa Wilcock-Wynn-Carraway (originated by Bryony Corrigan) is the latest addition to the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society as another female player, introduced in The Goes Wrong Show . Her work in the troupe is often characterized by being injured during productions as well as a paralyzing inability to improvise, which only makes things worse when mistakes require it of her. Prior to Vanessa's introduction, Bryony Corrigan was an understudy for The Play That Goes Wrong; she later played a stagehand in Peter Pan Goes Wrong and the BBC receptionist in A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong, though it is unknown if these are all separate characters.

Stage productions

The Play That Goes Wrong

The Play That Goes Wrong is a play by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, and Henry Shields. [15] It premiered at the Old Red Lion Theatre in London in 2012, [16] moved to Trafalgar Studios in 2013, [17] toured the UK and internationally in 2014 and opened to the Duchess Theatre in the West End on 14 September 2014. In the play, The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society attempt to put on a 1920s murder mystery, but the performance is beset with increasingly intricate disasters and the accident-prone cast are forced to struggle through every scene.

It won Best New Comedy at the 2015 Laurence Olivier Awards and Best New Comedy at the WhatsOnStage.com Awards in 2014 [18]

Its run in London's West End at the Duchess Theatre has been extended multiple times, and is still currently running. [19]

The Play that Goes Wrong has been translated and licensed for productions in over 30 other countries, including China, Hungary, France, Singapore, Puerto Rico, Brazil, and Mexico. [20] Notable productions in other languages include Théâtre Tristan Bernard's staging in Paris, France [21] and Teatr Variété's from February 2024 in Kraków, Poland.

[23] Following widespread critical acclaim, Peter Pan Goes Wrong returned to the Apollo Theatre for a limited run from October 2016 to January 2017. [24] [ better source needed ]

Adapted from the original stage play Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie, the play features the inept and accident-prone Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society as they set out to present the classic tale of Peter Pan with comical and disastrous results.

The production was nominated for two Off West End Awards in 2013 for Best Production [25] and Best Ensemble. [26]

Peter Pan Goes Wrong made its Broadway debut at the Barrymore Theater on 17 March 2023 (with an opening date scheduled for 19 April 2023), featuring a majority of the original company, and a number of US Mischief alumni.

The Comedy About a Bank Robbery

The Comedy About a Bank Robbery is a comedy play, written by Lewis, Sayer and Shields. [27] The play opened at the West End's Criterion Theatre on 31 March 2016, with an official opening night on 21 April 2016. The production closed on 15 March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Original cast included: Henry Lewis, Henry Shields, Jonathan Sayer, Nancy Zamit, Dave Hearn, Charlie Russell, Greg Tannahill, Jeremy Lloyd and Chris Leask

The play is directed by Mark Bell, with set design by David Farley and costume design by Roberto Surace. [28]

Lights! Camera! Improvise! and Mischief Movie Night

Lights! Camera! Improvise! is an improvised comedy show devised and performed by Mischief Theatre. [29] The show was first presented at The Edinburgh Festival in August 2009 [30] and has since been performed across the UK and internationally as well as at The Duchess Theatre in the West End.

In the show, a film collector named Oscar invites the audience to suggest genres, locations and a title for a film which he then finds in his extensive DVD collection. A company of six or seven performers then improvise a long-form narrative based on these ideas under the direction of Oscar.

In 2013 the production won a Spirit of the Fringe Award at Edinburgh Fringe Festival. [31]

In 2017 the show, renamed Mischief Movie Night, began a limited run at The Arts Theatre in London's West End.

In 2020 Mischief Theatre began live-streaming semi-regular performances of Mischief Movie Night In during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Vaudeville Theatre residency

In September 2019, Mischief Theatre began a yearlong residency at the Vaudeville Theatre in London's West End, alongside the long-running productions of The Play That Goes Wrong and The Comedy About a Bank Robbery .

Groan Ups

Groan Ups was written by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields, and was the first production of the residency, running from 20 September until 1 December 2019, featuring the original Mischief company and directed by Kirsty Patrick Ward.

Magic Goes Wrong

Magic Goes Wrong is a collaboration between the company and Penn & Teller that combines the Goes Wrong formula with actual stage magic. The production began previews 14 December 2019, prior officially opening on 8 January 2020. [32] It had been extended to run until August 2020, [33] but the COVID-19 pandemic shut it down in March. The production reopens on 21 October 2021 at The Apollo Theatre for a strictly limited Christmas run. [34]

Additional Shows

Mischief Theatre returned to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August 2022. In addition to Mischief Movie Night, Mischief also presented Mind Mangler: Member of the Tragic Circle, in which the protagonist is based on a Magic Goes Wrong character, as well as Charlie Russell Aims to Please, a solo show written and starring original company member Charlie Russell.

Outside of the official Mischief productions, company members participated in Starship Improvise at the Festival, partnering up with members of fellow improv-comedy group Showstoppers, including People Just Do Nothing actress Ruth Bratt. [35]

Mischief opened a revised version of Mind Mangler off-Broadway at New World Stages on November 19, 2023. Starring were original company members Henry Lewis and Jonathan Sayer. [36] Performances ended on January 28, 2024 in preparation for a seven-week West End run in March. [37]

Television productions

Peter Pan Goes Wrong was adapted for a one-hour television special which was broadcast on 31 December 2016 on BBC One. It featured almost the entire original cast (with the exception of Rob Falconer) and guest starred David Suchet as the narrator. [38]

On 30 December 2017, A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong aired on BBC One, featuring both Dame Diana Rigg and Sir Derek Jacobi. Following the events of the previous year, the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society have now been blacklisted by the BBC. Determined to get back on the air, they hijack a live broadcast of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol . [39] The special was watched by a reported audience of 4.61 million. [40]

Starring the original cast and creatives behind The Play That Goes Wrong, episodes are formatted as half-hour "live" televised stage plays.
