Someone just uploaded the BBC televised play of Peter Pan by the same people who did The Play That Goes Wrong.

A lot of similar jokes, but VERY funny nonetheless.

and before anyone gets all butthurt, this isn't a theatrical bootleg, it was a televised special.

I forget where I saw the news but I THINK they are planning to bring this to Broadway in 2020?

I would think they would want to bring over their other shows (the new ones like Groan Ups/Magic Goes Wrong/their other residency coming out or A Comedy About A Bank Robbery) before this one. Still I will happily accept any Mischief Theatre plays crossing the pond.

I actually enjoyed this more than I did The Play That Goes Wrong. It's brilliant.

If they do bring a new show over, I really REALLY hope it's their magic show they wrote with Penn & Teller. There was a 10 minute clip of it floating around YouTube, and I was DYING. So funny.

I was wondering if this was on track for Broadway. Much like Six, it's a part of the Citadel in Canada this season. I couldn't help but think at the time I saw their season announcement (knowing at that time Six's plans to attempt to make it to Broadway which is has since nailed) if it meant that Peter Pan was trying to get on the same path.

I'm kind of skeptical of that. Unless there are productions I'm unaware of, only Six and Hadestown have had productions with Citadel pre-Broadway, both touring around a bit before landing a Broadway house. Unless Mischief Theatre are directly behind the production (they might be, I have no clue), it might just be another regional production like they have for every season.

Found the receipt! It was from the producer's bio on the Six website. But it might be an outdated bio since the Auckland opening happened in November 2018.

"The second collaboration with Mischief Theatre, Peter Pan Goes Wrong has completed two West End Christmas seasons and was also Olivier nominated. The Australia / New Zealand production opens in November in Auckland with plans for a Broadway opening within the next twelve months."
