The Comedy About A Bank Robbery Tickets

    From the creative minds behind the Olivier Award-Winning The Play that Goes Wrong comes this fresh comedy. Mischief Theatre presents The Comedy of a Bank Robbery, one of their most ambitious projects that involves a group of criminals attempting to steal a large diamond from a bank.

    Why Watch The Comedy About a Bank Robbery

    The Comedy About A Bank Robbery is a play that pays obvious homage to Hollywood bank robbery movies while still retaining its originality. The play features impeccably-timed comedy both in its verbal and non-verbal forms, along with set pieces that leave you astonished. With all its staging and acting coming together exactly right, The Comedy About A Bank Robbery promises to leave you with a big smile on your face.

    The Story

    The play is set in the summer of 1958. A Hungarian Prince has entrusted a rather large diamond to the The Minneapolis City Bank. A group of criminals that includes an escaped convict, corrupt prison guards, and wily women, is dead set on stealing the gem. In a town where everyone's a crook and you can't trust anyone, where will the diamond end up?
