Nothing this wrong could feel so right! The smash hit farce The Play That Goes Wrong celebrates its 10th year in the West End at the Duchess Theatre, and tickets are now available through 1 February 2026.

Critically acclaimed and loved by audiences for over a decade, theatregoers have enjoyed the antics of its clumsy characters night after night.

This clever and raucous piece of meta-theatre centers on The Cornley Drama Society's amateur thespians as they stage their latest murder mystery show, only for disaster and hilarity to the main attraction.

The mad-genius work of co-writers Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, and Henry Shields is winner of Olivier and Tony Awards, and it celebrated its 10th year on stage with a special gala performance featuring original cast members and special guests.

Originally debuting at the Duchess Theatre in September 2014, the show has gone on to play over 3,500 performances there. The longest-running show in London couldn't contain itself there, and The Play That Goes Wrong has had productions in 49 countries and every continent except for Antarctica.
