The Comedy About Spies at The Bristol Hippodrome | 10-14 August 2027

Bigger, better and more brilliantly bungling than ever

Following two sold-out West End seasons, MISCHIEF’s most critically acclaimed adventure The Comedy About Spies is heading out on its first UK tour and will be at The Bristol Hippodrome from 10-14 August 2027. Shows are at 7.30pm each evening with additional matinee performances on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday afternoon from 2.30pm. 

‘Bigger, better and more brilliantly bungling than ever’ (Daily Mail), don’t miss the award-winning Best New Play (WhatsOnStage Awards 2026) from the team behind The Play That Goes Wrong, Peter Pan Goes Wrong and The Comedy About a Bank Robbery.

When a rogue British agent pilfers plans for a top-secret weapon, CIA and KGB spies descend on London’s Piccadilly Hotel in pursuit of the elusive file. ‘Abandon yourself to the madness’ (The Times) and join a clueless young couple, a hapless actor angling for an exciting spy movie role, and enough double agents to confuse even the sharpest operative, in a mission that spirals hilariously out of control.
