The accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences!

From falling props, collapsing floors, and sticky doors to actors forgetting lines, stomping on fingers, breaking character, and getting stuck in a grandfather clock, you can bet you'll be in for a non-stop funny ride from start to finish! Do something right by booking The Play That Goes Wrong London tickets today.
