About A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong
The Mischief Theatre Company return as the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society who are this time determined to ignore a BBC blacklisting by hijacking a live production of Charles Dickens' famous festive fable. Yet they struggle with studio direction and special effects, and trying to keep a professional cast at bay.
Directed by Richard Boden, A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong leans on a strong ensemble — Derek Jacobi, Diana Rigg, Dave Hearn — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2017.
