The upcoming festive fiasco comes from the multi-award-winning creators of The Play That Goes Wrong, which is now in its 11th year at London's Duchess Theatre.

Performances of Christmas Carol Goes Wrong kick off at the Apollo Theatre on 6 December, perfect in the lead up to the festive season. It will be directed by Matt DiCarlo, who returns following his critical acclaim for his West End directorial debut of The Comedy about Spies earlier this year.
Turning this Christmas classic into chaos are: Matt Cavendish as Max, Daniel Fraser as Chris, Sasha Frost as Sandra, Chris Leask as Trevor, Henry Lewis as Robert, Jonathan Sayer as Dennis, Greg Tannahill as Jonathan, and Nancy Zamit and Dumile Sibanda will share the role of Annie. The understudies are: Alex Bird, Will Bishop, Siobhan Cha Cha, Colm Gleeson and Ashley Tucker.
The chaos and humour of the Cornley Amateur Dramatic Society return to the stage with their take on the beloved Christmas story. They'll battle miscommunication, delays to their set, actors missing in action and a growing feud over who will play the lead.
Christmas Carol Goes Wrong plays from 6 December 2025 to 25 January 2026.
