Bank managers of London’s West End best be wary for another year; Mischief Theatre’s smash-hit The Comedy About A Bank Robbery is celebrating its second West End birthday with news of a third year’s extension at the Criterion Theatre.
A knock-out hit in the truest sense of the phrase – there are 127 blows landed by characters each performance, amounting to 106,045 since the show opened – The Comedy About A Bank Robbery is now booking until 7 April 2019, offering the chance to see plenty more slapstick hilarity.

Mischief Theatre’s smash-and-grab hit is a fast, fabulous, comedy caper. Packed with dynamite, rib-tickling comedy, audiences can expect mistaken identities, love triangles, hidden agendas, and plot twists aplenty, as a hapless motley crew aim to score a priceless diamond from Minneapolis City Bank.
In a town where everyone’s a crook, who will end up bagging the jewel? It’d be criminal not to find out.
The latest The Comedy About A Bank Robbery cast includes Samson Ajewole (Cooper), Jenna Augen (Ruth Monaghan), Jack Baldwin (Officer Shuck), Leonard Cook (Robin Freeboys), Samuel Fogell (Sam Monaghan), Matt Hunt (Mitch Ruscitti), Chris Leask (Everyone Else), Peter McGovern (Warren Slax), Holly Sumpton (Caprice Freeboys) and the company is completed by Lydia Fraser, Sarah Gage, Samuel Thomas, Jack Whittle and Jean-Luke Worrell.
The show was created by Mischief Theatre, the comedy geniuses behind the Olivier Award-winning The Play That Goes Wrong, and the nominated recent hits Peter Pan Goes Wrong and Mischief Movie Night. The Comedy About A Bank Robbery itself was nominated in the Best New Comedy category last year.
