Due to phenomenal demand, The Comedy About Spies will finish its run at the Noel Coward Theatre on 5 September.
The show's cast includes members of the original Mischief Company: Dave Hearn, Chris Leask, Henry Lewis, Charlie Russell, Henry Shields, Greg Tannahill, Nancy Zamit, and Adele James. Macadie Amoroso, Adam Byron, Matt Cavendish, Allie Dart, Niall Ransome, and Ashley Tucker complete the cast.
The new show is an uproarious 1960s spy escapade, bursting to the brim with bungled missions, tangled identities, and miscommunication that’s anything but covert.
The Director is Matt DiCarlo, Set Designer is David Farley, the Costume Designer is Deborah Andrews, the Movement Director is Shelley Maxwell, the Lighting Designer is Johanna Town, the Sound Designer and Composer is Jon Fiber for JollyGoodTunes, the Casting is by Lucy Jenkins CDG & Sooki McShane CDG, Additional Casting by Heather Basten CDG CSA and the Associate Director is Katie-Ann McDonough.
If you already love previous shows from Mischief Company, we are thrilled and so excited by this latest addition to the West End this Spring!
