Duchess Theatre

A small but relatively intimate theatre. The staff are decent and respectful. It was showing the Play that Goes Wrong and while not tremendously funny, it was amusing. Certainly don't believe the hype as it's not that hilarious as the reviews suggest. It got better as the show carried on however. Some very likeable characters like the butler, the understudy for the lady, and the younger brother of the murdered haversham. All in all I would recommend this theatre and this show if you can get cheap tickets.

An absolutely hilarious evening watching The Play That Goes Wrong with Tom Cruise! Brilliant murder mystery, hysterical cast, everything DOES go wrong and we were in stitches throughout - this is a MUST watch! Theatre is a few minutes walk from Covent Garden and is small enough to have a great view of the stage regardless of how far back you sit. The pictures are from the terrace seating (row E) and we had a great view!

I went to see The Play That Goes Wrong at the Duchess Theatre recently, and it was a great production. It was funny, with some great stand out moments, alongside some well timed puns. It’s definitely not one of those shows I feel I would need to see again, but it was certainly good fun. The theatre itself is small, with a couple of small bars. The bar wasn’t badly priced in comparison to some other productions I’ve recently seen, and there is a discount if you pre-order. The seats were comfortable too.

The play that goes wrong is a fantastic family show, the play is so funny, the cast had great comic timing and interacted with the audience. The venue is intimate, so that you feel close to the action. We had a great time and laughed throughout.

Brilliant show, laughed so much during this despite it meant to be a serious play. Only thing is the seats are definitely in need of replacing, I noticed a part of the seat was just hanging on

I had the pleasure of attending The Play That Goes Wrong, and it was nothing short of spectacular. The performance by the theater actors was exceptional, showcasing their impeccable timing and unmatched comedic flair. I couldn’t stop laughing throughout the entire play, as every scene was packed with hilarity and charm. What truly left me in awe was the incredible synchronization among the actors—the way they effortlessly caught keys, picked up phones, and executed every chaotic moment with precision. Each movement and interaction was so beautifully crafted that it was impossible not to be mesmerized. It was an unforgettable experience, full of laughter and admiration for the sheer talent on display.

What a hilarious play! Highly recommend watching it. Great audience interaction and great cocktails to go with the theme! Perfect for a great time and laughs

We saw the show that goes wrong, good show, slap stick comedy. The theatre itself is a good size with friendly knowledgeable staff. The seats are comfortable enough for a 90 minute show. There is an accessible entrance (staff assist if sitting in the stalls as there is no lift) and accessable toilet. There's a bar on each floor with a decent range of drinks and snacks.
