The Play That Goes Wrong has announced a new cast as it enters its second year. The new cast will perform from 19th August 2015.

The show which won the Olivier Award for Best New Comedy, started as a one act play Off West End before being developed into a full length West End production.

The company is completed by Adam Byron, Matt Cavendish, April Hughes and Sarah Madigan.

REVIEW: The Play That Goes Wrong, Duchess Theatre ✭✭✭✭

It’s all downhill from there. The drama begins and quickly it all goes to pot. Lines are forgotten, the acting is terrible, and the efforts of all of the actors on stage are at odds with each other resulting in a calamitous mess. But it’s hilarious.
