Rehearsal for Murder

This is a thrilling "theatrical" mystery in which your theatre becomes the set for the play. The playwright turns on the stage work light and prepares for the first reading of his new play. The actors, producer, director and others connected with the show come onto the stage, and under their humorous (and utterly real) theatrical talk, tension grows.

We discover that everyone connected with this play was involved with another play by the same playwright. At its opening night, exactly a year ago and in this same theatre, the beautiful leading lady, who was also the playwright's fiancée, was murdered! Logical twists build to a climax and solution that are theatrically stunning.


Adapted by D.D. Brooke from the teleplay by Richard Levin & William Link

Every Christmas Story Ever Told...And Then Some.

The play begins as an actor begins a performance of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and is joined by two castmates who refuse to join in as they have performed A Christmas Carol too many times in their career already. They rebel and decide to present every Christmas story ever told instead.

Over 90 minutes, these three comedic actors portray as many holiday stories and characters as they can remember. Using wild costumes, special effects and their comedy skills, they take a ride through well-known classics, from The Grinch Who Stole Christmas to Frosty the Snowman – and so much more.

Peter Pan Goes Wrong

Brace yourselves for an awfully big adventure when the inept and accident-prone Cornley Drama Society set out to present J.M. Barrie’s much-loved classic tale of Peter Pan, their most audacious production to date. Flying? Pyrotechnics? Sharp hooks? What ensues is two acts of hysterical disaster, battling technical hitches, flying mishaps and cast disputes. But will they ever make it to Neverland?

You’ll laugh; they’ll cry. Something so wrong has never been so right. Containing the same potent blend of hilarity that features in their award-winning The Play That Goes Wrong, Mischief’s take on Peter Pan is unforgettable, even if the Cornley Drama Society wish they could forget what just happened.

We Can Only Give a.....CLUE

We are restricted to say too much about this show until February of 2026. But we can give you a CLUE...
It was a board game first.
Then it was a movie.
Now, it’s a play, complete with ropes, daggers, studies and bodies.. Many people will be GREEN with envy when they find we got the rights as it’s such a PLUM show!

Pictures From Home

Playwright Sharr White transforms photographer Larry Sultan’s landmark photo memoir for the stage in this new three-character play. In the 1980s, Sultan spent a decade photographing and interviewing his parents and unearthing the memories beneath his family’s home movies.

The result is a deeply intimate and comic portrait of a mother, a father and their son. Though set in the recent past, this poignant and theatrically inventive play is both of-the-moment and timeless.

No Exit

Two women and one man are locked up together for eternity in one hideous room in Hell.
The windows are bricked up, there are no mirrors, the electric lights can never be turned off, and there is no exit.
The irony of this Hell is that its torture is not of the rack and fire, but of the burning humiliation of each soul as it is stripped of its pretenses by the cruel curiosity of the damned. Here the soul is shorn of secrecy, and even the blackest deeds are mercilessly exposed to the fierce light of Hell. Famously, Hell is other people.


By Jean-Paul Sartre / Translated by Paul Bowles
