A long form improvised show from Mischief Theatre. During the closure of theatres due to the COVID-19 pandemic they took the show online, streaming live to viewers around the world.

What’s the worst that could happen? A troupe of am dram actors take on some prestige productions. If you wouldn't mind ignoring the pratfalls, crumbling sets and tortured thespians ...

King Stupid and Butler Goober control a machine causing mischief worldwide, like kids poking with "Devil Fingers" and a divorced man camping at his ex-wife's home.

The Olivier Award-winning Mischief Theatre brings Peter Pan Goes Wrong to BBC One. As part of its commitment to community theatre, the BBC has commissioned The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society, an amateur dramatics group, to recreate the JM Barrie classic as part of their festive programming. But can they pull it off? Narrated by David Suchet and filmed in front of a live audience, watch as Peter Pan flies through the air, Captain Hook and his pirates set adrift in the lagoon, and Tinkerbell is due to light up the stage in a stunning electrical costume... what can possibly go wrong?! With their trademark comic mayhem, expect hilarious stunts, chaos, technical hitches, flying mishaps and cast disputes on the way to Neverland with hilarious and disastrous results.

The Mischief Theatre Company return as the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society who are this time determined to ignore a BBC blacklisting by hijacking a live production of Charles Dickens' famous festive fable. Yet they struggle with studio direction and special effects, and trying to keep a professional cast at bay.

A bloody little short challenging today's views on body politics.
