BroadwayHD to Premiere BBC's A CHRISTMAS CAROL GOES WRONG

Just in time for the holidays, The Olivier Award-Winning Mischief Theatre Company's A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong will be available to stream on BroadwayHD. This special marks the first production Mischief Theatre has made solely for television consumption. The company's first US venture, The Play That Goes Wrong, celebrates its standing as the longest running play currently on Broadway. The original airing of A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong garnered a live viewership of 4 million people in the UK, and will available for the first time in the US & Canada.

Starring renowned actors Sir Derek Jacobi and Game of Thrones' Diana Rigg, comedic chaos ensues when the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society sneaks into the BBC Studios and forcibly hijacks a production of A Christmas Carol starring Jacobi as Ebenezer Scrooge. As hard as they try their best to put on a good show, things go wrong from the get go, with hilarity and pratfalls for the whole family to enjoy!

Mischief Theatre's A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong was originally a BBC Studios Production for BBC One, and filmed at MediaCity UK in Salford.
