Funny show with lots of physical comedy. We were all the way in the back, but we were able to see everything just fine.

Good show, intimate atmosphere and great fun! The capacity of the bar is a question though, but it doesn't really affect the show!

It was brilliant. I was laughing the whole time, the stage design was awesome and the actors were magnificent. I would highly recommend to see the play as soon as possible

This was a wonderful comedy. It combines a spoof of the classic who-done-it at ye olde English country estate with a portrayal (on steroids) of the kinds of pitfalls encountered in any stage production. The humor is a combination of great imagination, wit and amazing physicality. My companions and I (all sober scientists) couldn't stop laughing. A real joy!

'Slapstick' comedy, which looks chaotic and random, actually requires great comedic skills and perfect timing. The 'Play that goes wrong' has a team of fantastic performers, a cleverly contrived and controlled set, and apparent disasters which happen from the first moment. The cast includes the audience in the mayhem from the beginning, and the laughs are plentiful and increase in intensity as the show goes on. I haven't laughed so much for about 100years, and my jaw was aching by the end of the show. Absolutely brilliant-I recommend it wholeheartedly. If you haven't got a sense of humour, stay away!

Seats in row C gave us an excellent view of the performance. The show was hilarious and entertaining. The physicality of the performers was impressive. A fun night out.

Play was very good. My problem was that people could take drinks inside. The theatre had a bad smell, from with everybody smelling of alcohol, and there must have been drinks spilled on the floor as well. It smelled like a bad pub before closing time on a Friday night. I like my wine and g&t too, but I don't want to spend two hours In A theatre having to put up with this bad odour. Drinks should not be allowed inside the theatre.

The experience was an overall success, as the seats were comfortable, and placed in a way where everyone could see the stage. The play in itself was hilarious, and I would definitely recommend it. However, I rated the theater "good" instead of "awesome" as the toilets were not in the best state, and the way out was narrow, unadapted for a large mob of people.

It was a brilliant performance. Also the interaction of the actors with the audience before and during the play was magnificent. The theater employees were also very friendly and helpful with all questions.

It was what I expected -a good laugh, great fun. funny, silly, very English - The Moustrap on speed. Ticket purchase and use was very simple.

Great play at a great theatre with a great cast, who interacted brilliantly with the audience. I loved the TV series of the same name but my wife was less keen on that. However, we both loved this live play. We also went to see some of the xmas lights at Regent Street and Oxford Street and then had a meal at Covent Garden before 'eventually' catching one of the few trains home from Waterloo station that evening. The train problem was the only real negative with our day out and it didn't take too much off the shine of the day!

The play was absolutely brilliant. We all laughed from start to finish. Its not something you could watch twice as you would know what was going to happen, but it is awsome. Well worth going to see.

The trip was to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We had a thoroughly fabulous time and would certainly book again. Great service and we were kept up-to-date at all times. A BIG thank you.

The ticketing experience was OK, only I couldn't book seats on two different rows (we were a party of 7 and there was no row with 7 adjacent seats); so my wife and I synchronised so that I booked 4 seats and she booked 3 seats directly behind. And that worked out fine. As for the play "The play that went wrong", it was simply hilarious. I think I can safely say I have never laughed so much in all my long life. I thoroughly recommend it to anyone in search of entertainment. Absolutely superb.

Audience inclusion! The actor playing the "sound guy" was seamless! He was talking to ladies waiting for the restroom during internissions and was totally believeable. Entire show was truly hilarious.

Truly great theatre experience, starting outside the Duchess theatre with this sign (see picture), thru to the cast mingling with the crowd a few minutes prior the actual show and then ... what a performance! When in London, this is a Must See show...;-)

Great Show. Enjoyed it. Love the missing dog, very creative. Stage was well planned with extra room on 1st floor. All presenters looked great and performed very well. Loved them. Actually it was the first time for my partner of a theatre. She loved it too. Good and well done. But I was hoping the stage will rotate for the scenes. But it did not. Maybe it was planned there way....

Tickets came when they siad they would. Theatre was great with loads of leg space and you could see over everyones head. The play was brilliant as were the actors and set organisers, it gave us such a lift in this grim times. Well done everyone.

It was amazing and so so funny! I loved that they were looking for the dog and interacting with the audience before it started. I didn't expect anything but loved all the twists!
