CHRISTMAS CHOAS RETURNS TO LONDON AT THE WYNDHAM’S THEATRE | ON SALE NOW

01 May 2026

Mischief, the multi-award winning company behind The Play That Goes Wrong, Peter Pan Goes Wrong and The Comedy About Spies, have announved that its hilarious festive fiasco, Christmas Carol Goes Wrong will return to the West End for a limited run at Wyndham’s Theatre, a Delfont Mackintosh Theatre, from Friday 18 December 2026 to Saturday 23 January 2027. Tickets are now on sale.

Christmas Carol Goes Wrong sees The Cornley Amateur Drama Society bring tidings of chaos and joy as they tackle Charles Dickens’ classic, A Christmas Carol. The Cornley crew battle miscommunication, delays to their set, actors missing in action and a growing feud over who will play the lead. It’s a disastrous take on the much loved classic Christmas story of Ebenezer Scrooge and a festive slice of pure escapism.

Christmas Carol Goes Wrong played to sell-out houses, when it premiered at the Apollo Theatre in Shaftesbury Avenue last year. It is written by original Mischief Members Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields and the production is directed by Matt DiCarlo, who also helmed the award-winning The Comedy About Spies which is set to have its second West End run this summer at London’s Adelphi Theatre.

Joining Henry, Jonathan, Henry and Matt on the creative team are: Libby Todd (set designer), Roberto Surace (costume designer), David Howe (lighting designer) and Alexandra Faye Braithwaite (sound designer and composer). The cast are yet to be announced.

A 15 minute documentary has also been released on YouTube, taking a look behind the scenes at the making of the show.

Christmas Carol Goes Wrong in the West End is produced by Kenny Wax and Stage Presence.
