The Comedy About Spies

Noel Coward Theatre, London

Rating:

Mischief Theatre, the team behind The Play That Goes Wrong, did it again last night with yet another hit for theatreland.

They strike comedy gold in their latest caper: a Sixties spy spoof that is like Johnny English meets Basil Fawlty in a Piccadilly hotel. It’s bigger, better and more brilliantly bungling than ever.
