This clever and witty Mischief Theatre production was written by Henry Shields, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Lewis and follows an attempted heist to steal a Hungarian prince's precious diamond.

Mischief Theatre is a comedy theatre company that was created by a group of graduates and students of the London Academy of Music & Art in 2008. Since the company's formation, Mischief Theatre has created several hilarious and award-winning shows, including Peter Pan Goes Wrong and That Play That Goes Wrong (Broadway World Theatre Award for Best Play, Oliver Award for Best New Comedy, and WhatsOnStage Award for Best New Comedy).

The funny (and punny) show would be criminal to miss! It's an absolute riot that will have you rolling on the floor laughing!
