GOD BLESS HELP US, EVERYONE

The Cornley Amateur Drama Society are back with tidings of chaos and joy, ready to tackle the Charles Dickens' classic, A Christmas Carol.

A new production of CHRISTMAS CAROL GOES WRONG smashes into the Lowry prior to a strictly limited 8-week West End run. Don’t miss this guaranteed Christmas catastrophe from Mischief, the multi award-winning company behind The Play That Goes Wrong, Peter Pan Goes Wrong and The Comedy About a Bank Robbery.

As the Cornley crew hilariously battle miscommunication, delays to their set, actors missing in action and a growing feud over who will play the lead, it’s sure to be a disastrous take on the much-loved classic Christmas story of Ebeneezer Scrooge. Will Cornley finally change their ways, or will their misfortunes wreak havoc with hysterical consequences.

Enjoy a festive slice of pure escapism at the worst production in Christmas past, present and yet to come! Don’t be a Scrooge, book now.

Meet our Cornley crew causing Christmas chaos! 🎅 Matt Cavendish as Max, Daniel Fraser as Chris, Sasha Frost as Sandra, Chris Leask as Trevor, Henry Lewis as Robert, Jonathan Sayer as Dennis, Greg Tannahill as Jonathan, and Nancy Zamit as Annie - as well as our merry, mischievous understudies Alex Bird, Will Bishop, Siobhan Cha Cha, Colm Gleeson, and Ashley Tucker.
