Get ready, Manchester! Peter Pan is flying across the UK for Peter Pan Goes Wrong at the Manchester Opera House this spring, and is all set to cause some serious Pan-demonium!

Produced by Mischief, the masterminds behind The Play That Goes Wrong and The Comedy About A Bank Robbery, Peter Pan Goes Wrong takes a hilarious and quite frankly chaotic spin on the timeless classic we all know and love.

If you want a smooth-sailing, calming and ‘functional’ theatre experience, we really recommend you do not come and see this production. Peter Pan Goes Wrong is exactly what it says on the tin – things going wrong, and audience members are invited to join members of the Cornley Drama Society as they attempt to make it through a series of ridiculous technical hitches, flying mishaps, and casting disputes in their attempt to present J.M Barrie’s classic tale of Peter Pan.

Mischief’s unique brand of hilarious, ‘gut-busting’ comedy, as hailed by the New York Times, has achieved delight on a global scale. Don’t miss out on the wondrous, topsy-turvy and comedic adventure of Peter Pan Goes Wrong in Manchester this March, which guarantees belly laughs from start to finish.

Peter Pan Goes Wrong at The Manchester Opera House is recommended for ages 8 and up, so is a perfect treat if you want to spend some quality time with your ‘older’ little ones. Book now and brace yourselves for an awfully big adventure as well as making some soaring memories with your family.
