The Show In the next 'Goes Wrong' comedy to hit the West End, the original Mischief company play a hapless gang of magicians presenting a charity event. As the accidents spiral out of control, so does their fundraising target! Created with Magic legends Penn & Teller*, Mischief Theatre conjure up an evening of grand illusion. The result of this collaboration is a show featuring classic magic, mind reading, a circus style double act and American jeopardy artist performing feats that not only go wrong, but also dazzle the audience who have no idea how it's done. Please Note: Penn & Teller are co-creators of the show and won't be appearing on stage.
History of Magic Goes Wrong Following on from the hit West End and Broadway show 'The Play That Goes Wrong', Mischief Theatre bring us this new, altogether more mystical comedy. Mischief's roots were as a struggling three piece putting on plays above a pub, and their rise to fame has been nothing less that stratospheric. Founded in 2008 by friends and Lamda (London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art) graduates Jonathan Sayer, Henry Lewis and Henry Shields, the company also�recently announced a six-part BBC comedy called The Goes Wrong Show. Penn and Teller are legendary TV magicians who have brought their own individual irreverent style to Mischief's theatrical ingenuity. Teller said:�'�We've very proud of the results and hope you enjoy the show.� A big player in the unstoppable rise of Mischief Theatre is one of the most powerful men in Hollywood, JJ Abrams, who was in London filming Star Wars when he randomly came across The Play That Goes Wrong.
