The Comedy about a Bank Robbery performance on Tonight at the Palladium

[@SailorDoom21]

Idc how many times in however many shows they do the “having to belt a soft song harshly over a loud noise” bit, its legitimately always funny. I think that says a lot about the talent of this troupe that I can laugh out loud at every use of a joke even when I know the punchline, or perhaps that just says a lot about me. Anyhow, great show!

I went to see this play last year and was in the front row. During the bedroom scene someone 2 seats down from me passed out and fell out of their chair. We were all sent to the lobby and they were taken out by an ambulance. We later learned they were fine and recovered 100%. When we all sat back down and the show resumed the actors came out and there was this awkward moment where it was like 'how the hell do we pick up this scene'. They were pros and broke the tension, everyone laughed and the show picked up its flow like nothing happened. Such a surreal theatre experience.

[@thesimpsons17]

@bad1dobby there was no way they could have continued, everyone's attention was on the situation. Glad they didn't just keep going would have taken me out of the amazing show

[@thesimpsons17]

@bad1dobby ah ok, I dont know what attention they needed but medics were tending to them on the floor. It was a nerve wracking time in the lobby that's for sure!

[@MrGuySniper]

Omg I was also at that performance! Unforgettable when they stopped the show midway. Only I was in the back row and confused haha

[@123jsd]

One show I did as we were getting ready to start an older man coming into the theatre slipped on a step and cracked his head open and the ambulance had to come. We had to delay the show as all the blood was cleaned up and the man was evacuated. Luckily it wasn't in the middle of the show, but that was not fun.

It's such an interesting change up to see the "goes wrong" element actually be a "planned" part of the show! And they pull it off just as well!

[@entitree.]

maybe I'm just misinterpreting your comment (do let me know if thats the case, it probably is) but you are away that they're all planned?

[@oscargill423]

​@@entitree. I am aware that they're all planned... but usually the plays are about a play going wrong. Here it's just the heist within the play going wrong; the "play" itself goes off without a hitch. It's a nice spin on the classic. Hope that clarifies!

[@AlanXEverfrost]

@@oscargill423 I understand what you mean. It's a bit of a shame, considering all those previous works (The Play, Peter Pan, the Show etc.) have a sort of in-universe connection, where all the actors play the same character, which are "actors" and "stage crew" with relations to the other characters, traits that often form the source of the accidents and mishaps...but this work then obviously isn't because the sleeping guard is played by the same actor who is usually Trevor, the stage hand trying to fix everything in the plays. Annie did transition from crew to cast member, but that's ok. It's still Annie, and in "The Play That Goes Wrong" she was shown to want to be an actress... Not saying Mischief Theatre can't do something new. Of course they can. And this show has certainly gained a lot of fans. But I miss the "accidental" humor which made it feel so much more relatable. This "deliberate" humor is great, but the Cornley Drama Society is just something truly special.

I wonder what kind of training the Charlie, Henry and Dave had to go through with the ropes. It looks really easy, especially since There are harnesses attached to them so they can’t fall, but all of them have to pull a little Spider-Man while singing at the same time and then pull themselves back up. They’re also being dropped and raised by ropes as this happens and swinging in the air. That had to to take some kind of athletic effort
