Magic Goes Wrong Reviews
Pascale from London, England
WISH I HAD STAYED AT HOME
I have been a great fan of the Mischief Theatre but this is a show that is neither clever or really very funny (bar very few laughs with the errant teleprompt). I really wanted to like this show but it was far too long and repetitive. Some parts are not suitable for younger children. At the end when there was a huge pause some audience left, it was hard to tell if the delay was intended or whether something really had gone wrong. Very disappointing.

DISAPPOINTING
Not suitable for a young audience. Male nudity, swearing, crude language, odd racial stereotypes, lots of violence. Uncomfortable to watch.

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!!!!!!!
After watching The Play That Goes Wrong I was so looking forward to this show. It was BEYOND dreadful!!!!!!!! I would say its suitable for primary school kids but even then any child over the age of 7 won’t find it remotely funny. Paid a lot of our tickets and walked out at the interval, the first time I’ve ever done that. Even getting to the interval was painful!! Hate writing bad reviews but I truly can’t wrap my head around how they think that show is stage worthy..! Totally baffled and urge you to save your money.

RUBBISH
What a disappointment and a waste of money and time. It was like a load of amateurs in a village performance . Couldn’t wait to get home.

MAGIC SHOW GOES WRONGEST NOT WRONG
A total waste of my time and money!! Absolutely no planning went into this show. The actors and their humor were laid to rest so many times during the show. Nobody laughed!

MAGIC GOES WRONG, HUMOR TOTALLY ABSENT !
What a disappointment, saw queues outside theatre and thought that must be good, all i can say is the best thing was the White Chocolate Blondie cake i had luckily bought, ate that, watched out the poor 1st half performance then left, the first time ever we have walked out of a performance, I can't believe Penn & Teller put their name to that performance without seeing it first, we found it hard to work out what audience it was aimed at.

WORST MISCHIEF SHOW EVER
I have seen ‘The Play That Goes wrong ‘ 4 times and loved it, I’ve seen ‘Christmas Carol Goes Wrong’ ‘Peter Pan Goes Wrong’ all of them absolutely brilliant however, this was horrendous, without wit, it was not funny, I could have written better myself( and I cannot write) so disappointed and felt very cheated. Not one of the ‘original’ cast made an appearance as I was expecting, we left half way through.
