Play about a Bank Robbery, The – Criterion Theatre London (May 2017)

This a very funny farce from the creators of the Play that goes wrong (they plug the play at the curtain call).

It is set in 1950s America and is about a diamond heist from a bank it has laughs from the start to the end and has some funny physical tricks and stunts and a small amount of audience participation (they look for a man in the front row who has a wallet they can borrow).

The theatre is mainly underground but the stalls don’t take too long to get to, but there isn’t much slope so if you had a very tall person in front you might have problems seeing.

9/10
