The Comedy About Spies announces West End casting for the Noel Coward Theatre

Mischief theatre company has announced casting for the premiere of its new West End show The Comedy About Spies.

The Comedy About Spies is playing London’s Noël Coward Theatre from 14 April 2025.

The production will star members of the original Mischief Company – Dave Hearn, Chris Leask, Henry Lewis, Charlie Russell, Henry Shields, Greg Tannahill and Nancy Zamit.

They will be joined by Adele James, who is making her Mischief debut.

Mischief is the multi award-winning company behind The Play That Goes Wrong, Peter Pan Goes Wrong and The Comedy About a Bank Robbery.

The Comedy About Spies is billed as an uproarious 1960’s spy escapade, bursting with bungled missions, tangled identities, and miscommunication that’s anything but covert!

The show is written by original Mischief Company members Henry Lewis and Henry Shields, and directed by Matt DiCarlo.

The wider creative team includes set design by David Farley, costume design by Deborah Andrews, and sound design and music composition by Jon Fiber for JollyGoodTunes.

The comedy got an early preview at the Royal Albert Hall last month, when the show performed at the Royal Variety Performance 2024. The charity gala will be broadcast on ITV1 this Sunday 15 December.

The Comedy About Spies is running at the Noël Coward Theatre from 14 April 2025, booking to 3 August 2025.
