The Comedy About A Bank Robbery Tickets

A slick comedy.

Great choreography of sets and slapstick humour. Enthusiastic actors who looked like they were enjoying themselves. A fun night at the theatre.

Robert London Box Office customer

Hilarious slap stick comedy, must see!

Richard London Box Office customer

Sensational must see

The second time I’ve seen this show. Laughed more the second time. The actors comedic timing is excellent. The cast look like they are having as much fun as the audience. Thank you for a great night of comedy.

PETER London Box Office customer

Must See!

Jon London Box Office customer

50's US crime caper!

When I booked the show, for some reason I thought it was about the Hatton Garden Heist! So my initial disappointment, was soon forgot! It was like a good farce, very much in the mould of the Airplane franchise. Totally laugh out loud!

Donald London Box Office customer

Totally worth it!

Very happy surprised at how funny this show was. All the actors and actresses did an amazing job, not just acting, but also singing. I so recommend this play to anyone that needs a good laugh.

Angelika London Box Office customer

Absolutely hilarious

If you’re thinking about whether to go or not then definitely GO SEE IT! Incredibly clever, extremely funny and I want to go and see it all over again!

Ami London Box Office customer

Rachel London Box Office customer

A real treat!

My friend and I both went to see this show to celebrate our birthdays and although alot of the songs were golden olden songs we absolutely loved the humour and the songs.

Ruksana London Box Office customer

Fast paced, superb comic timing, laugh a minute!

Timing was everything with this play and they got it right! The set changes and general effects - especially sound effects were slick and smooth and spot on. Especially good were the rope hanging and air conditioning unit scenes. The pace never flagged. The singing was really excellent - especially from the Mrs Monaghan character. So much to like, it's hard to make any criticism but - some of the American accents were inconsistent and in trying to keep up a fast pace, some of the dialogue - especially from prisoners and gaolers at the start, was garbled. However it was an amazingly good evening's entertainment and we would recommend it to anyone!

Vivienne London Box Office customer

Colourful & creative

The show was entertaining however the play on words (misunderstandings) was a bit overdone for my liking although the comedy timing was excellent. I much preferred “ The play that goes wrong” and wish the Mischief Company every success.

Jim London Box Office customer

Clever Mischief

Brilliantly written and acted! Another fantastic comedy experience delivered by the Mischief Gang. Loved this as much as The Play that Goes Wrong. Can’t wait to experience their next creation!

Robert London Box Office customer

Laugh til my face hurt!

Sara London Box Office customer

Must see!!

Pui Lai London Box Office customer

Must see

Hilariously funny show made for anyone. It was loved by all 6 of us that went to the play. Every character had their own personality and kept it as the show went on. By a 12 years old theatre lover.

Rosemond London Box Office customer

Pacey and inventive

This had all the elements of a good farce - pacey, inventive with the power to surprise. Some of the mechanics were very original - for example the scene where we apparently view the bank manager's office from above and I liked the Hitchcockian inclusion of seagulls. My only criticism is that the amplification of the vocals was much too strong - the microphone needed to be adjusted.

John London Box Office customer

The show was brilliant

This was an excellent show we laughed from start to finish front of house staff were also very helpful the only advice I would offer is to try to get your seats not to close to the edges as you may miss out on things that happen towards the edges of the stage.

Lynda London Box Office customer

A must see!

What a cracking show! Truly raw acting at it’s very, very best! With very simple yet incredibly effective props. Absolutely loved it! Brilliant everyone!!!!

Graham London Box Office customer

Helen London Box Office customer

Best Play I have ever seen

francois London Box Office customer

I split my sides laughing

Barbara London Box Office customer

hilarious

Lidija London Box Office customer

Funny, witty and very enjoyable

Aldo London Box Office customer

Great entertainment

This is a hilarious, fast-pacing, "clean" comedy. A treat for all ages. The stage setting was imaginative and scene changes did not slow down the action. A great way to clear the doom and gloom and carry on with a smile. ..

Gloria London Box Office customer

Not my kind of humour

This show is very different to anything I’ve ever seen at the theatre and unfortunately I just didn’t find it funny. The humour is slapstick at its very best. If you find people falling over funny & obvious humour where you know what they are going to say next you will find this show hilarious like half the audience did. The acting is excellent, the sets are fantastic and everything is brilliant except if you can’t get on board with that kind of comedy the show is just not for you. I found it boring because of this the same jokes are repeated throughout the show sometimes to the point of over & over again. We didn’t stay till the end as neither us found it funny. It was a massive shame. I wished I was the lady behind me who was laughing out loud the entire time!

Natalie London Box Office customer

Fabulous comedy

Loved the show, laughed a lot!!

Denise London Box Office customer

Best comedy we've seen in ages!

David London Box Office customer

Theatre at its best

Funny talented actors singers stagecraft all contributing to a hilarious believable experience.

Keith London Box Office customer

funny

This play got funnier as it went on. It was a surprise that it was set in America, but didn’t distract from the story - instead lent itself nicely to the music and few songs. Which didn’t make it a musical, but actually added to the whole experience.

Ann London Box Office customer

A Must See

Gillian London Box Office customer

great show, amazing fun to watch good comedy

Pawel London Box Office customer

High farce

Catherine London Box Office customer

Great show!

Excellent fun, very well created.

Ben London Box Office customer

Amazing set

The play was great. We watched the play that goes wrong a few weeks ago which was amazing and hilarious. This was brilliant too, the mischief theatre company have done very well. The set is incredibly designed and works so well within the play. Highly recommend a watch.

James London Box Office customer

Laughed from start to finish

Charles London Box Office customer

Very amusing

A very funny show and all the better for being in a small in to.ate theatre. The cast worked very hard and coped with the physicall demands extremely well. Sometimes the dialogue was too fast!

Anne London Box Office customer

a really good light hearted , fuuny, spirited performance

Tony London Box Office customer

Up for some belly laughs

This is a slapstick comedy full of eccentric moments, high energy performances, laughs of all sorts except - I'm glad to say - outright 'adult' humour (I. E. Nothing explicitly sexual and no bad on language). Highly recommended for simply a fun evening.

Gary London Box Office customer

A wonderful night

Me and our friends all think this is a jolly lovely show. The actors and acturesses were all excellent in their endurance. The one that played "Sam" was very handsome.

ZHENGBANG London Box Office customer

Andrea London Box Office customer

Alexantr Tierry London Box Office customer

Laughed so much

Our group age ranged from 15years to 80 and this play worked for everyone. Excellent writing; brilliant timing on delivery of lines; very clever moments both physically and mentally for a very hard working cast that made it so entertaining for us all. Absolutely brilliant. We would all go again, very rare indeed!

Anne-Marie London Box Office customer

Very funny show, will make you laugh

Very enjoyable comedy

Selim London Box Office customer

A very clever and funny must see show

This was a very funny show. The slapstick humour was delivered with intelligence setting it head and shoulders above other shows in this genre. The word play and timing of the actors was spot on and ingenious. This show is a must see for anyone interested in having a fun filled night out in London. The theatre was intimate, with good bar facilities. This show will appeal to all ages.

Peter London Box Office customer

Cringy

Trevor London Box Office customer

A Fun Show

Written in the best tradition of a classic bedroom farce with a twist of action/adventure. A good night out.

Anna London Box Office customer

Good to see slap stick is still being reinvented.

Memorable show, with a very clever set and novel ideas. Great to go to a play with no preconceptions of the storyline.some very funny moments. I didn't enjoy the music and wasn't sure if I was missing some of the American humour.

Andrew London Box Office customer

Brilliant evening!

Hilariously funny fast paced slapstick comedy, I couldn't stop laughing throughout entire show! Witty and thoroughly amusing!

Katinka London Box Office customer

Fun, Energetic and Fantastic

I loved this show it was really cleverly funny, energetic and well staged. The air ventilation scene was just amazing. The singing and acting was first class. I have already recommended it and the couple are raving about it too.

Doreen London Box Office customer

Bag of laughs

If you like fast moving, slapstick, campy, and punny humor, you'll like this show.

Verlin London Box Office customer

Bad play, cheap jokes

The play was supposed to be about the bank robbery that went wrong. Up Until the interval, there was no bank roberry. With the corny jokes and fake American accent, not worth watching. Nowhere near as good as The Play That Goes Wrong. We left at interval. Don't waste your money.

Osman London Box Office customer

I think it might not be suitable for kids under the age of ,say, 14 due to sexual nature and strong language

We loved The Play that goes wrong and so decided to see the Bank Robbery. We took our 12 year old son to see it but I think if I knew of the content I might have given it a miss.I think it is not suitable for kids due to strong language and sexual scenes; which are really not suitable for kids.

Grace London Box Office customer

Solidly amusing

Steven London Box Office customer

Great fun

Fast moving very clever funny, great performance by all the actors and actresses.If you like comedy it's a must see.

Thomas London Box Office customer

Bernard's review

The second time I've seen this show and it was funnier than last time. Subtle changes to the cast changed the dynamic and keep it fresh.

Bernard London Box Office customer

Sarah London Box Office customer

What a gem.....

Absolutely amazing ...me and my wife both love it...our only regret was that I didn't take my daughters with us...on the way back home we booked tickets for the following Sunday, for all of us...it was flag up as few inuendos but is inoffensive elegant and doesn't fall on the rude side . Insanely brilliant....

Nicolae London Box Office customer

Another wonderful slice from Mischief!

lisa London Box Office customer

Very funny

Janet London Box Office customer

Overrated, puerile humour

I was really disappointed with the Comedy About A Bank Robbery as it had been so well reviewed previously. After a wonderful pre-theatre dinner at One Ham Yard I settled down happily to enjoy the show ...only to be sadly mistaken. The comedy was unsophisticated and over-obvious slapstick rather than the 'thrillingly and daringly inventive farce' that I was expecting. The first half raised not even a chuckle or a guffaw from me I'm afraid so I left at interval, preferring an early night and some re-runs of the still very funny Yes Minister series instead.

Alison London Box Office customer

Funny

Made me laugh with its fast wit and humour

Sue London Box Office customer

What a laugh!!

I have seen 'the play that goes wrong' and thought it couldn't be beaten but I enjoyed this even more. And love the creative stage sets!!!

Lucy London Box Office customer

Great fun!

Emma London Box Office customer

Hilarious

Rhiannon London Box Office customer

Fantastic cast a must see

We were at the back of the stalls which initially concerned me because I have poor eyesight but when the actors came out I was pleasantly surprised, my view was good although towards the end we did have to look at the screens in front to see the top half of the stage but my husband and I found this hilarious . I laughed so much I hurt my sides and that's a good thing.

Tania London Box Office customer

Hilarious

Lilika London Box Office customer

Hilariously brilliant

Didn't know quite what I was expecting but it surpassed anything I had in mind. Witty, creative and unique, this show is a must see even for unseasoned theatregoers and those who aren't the biggest fans of shows involving music. The acting was superb. The intense build up of comedic scenes were edge of the seat periods of breath holding and gaze fixing. One of the best shows I've seen in a long time.

Millie London Box Office customer

Every joke in one play!

Barry London Box Office customer

Non-stop , action and fun play

Suitable for 13+ Good family fun. A good plot which was fun and full on. We all had a good time.

Bernice London Box Office customer

Loved it!

My friend recommended the show and I had no expectations going into it. I laughed the whole time and was raving about it to everyone I know afterward! I would highly recommend this show.

Andrea London Box Office customer

Very clever and quite funny

Linda London Box Office customer

Kookie, Slapstick Humour.

Do you like slapstick comedy? This is for you in particular. Strong acting. Highly enjoyable to watch. Families with kids under 12, there are a couple of scenes that may embarrass you!! Overall a fab night out. The Criterion Theatre is worth a visit show or no show.

Sharron London Box Office customer

Comedy
