‘Mischief Movie Night’ to livestream performances in December
Performances of Mischief Movie Night are currently suspended in the West End.
Following the suspension of all West End performances, Mischief Movie Night is going online. A series of livestreamed performances have been announced, available for audiences worldwide from 27-31 December.
Each performance of Mischief Movie Night is orchestrated by audience suggestions, with the cast asking for a film genre, location and title before improvising a full-length movie on the spot.
Mischief Movie Night began performances at the Vaudeville Theatre on 9 December, but was forced to suspend performances from 16 December. Currently, Mischief Movie Night will return to the Vaudeville Theatre on 9 Jan. 2021, if London moves into a lower tier.
In a four star review for LondonTheatre.co.uk, Matt Wolf said: "You can't keep entertainment this fizzy bottled up for long, even as Mischief's beneficent comic hi-jinks increasingly seem a mark of sanity amidst a year gone wildly wrong."
Mischief Movie Night is the improvisational film show from Mischief Theatre, a British theatre company that's behind acclaimed comedies including The Play That Goes Wrong and The Comedy About A Bank Robbery. In 2021, Mischief Theatre will return to the Vaudeville with Magic Goes Wrong.
Livestreamed performances of Mischief Movie Night are taking place from 27-31 December, with more information here.
