Mentally still here. Physically still not recovered. Never laughed so much in my life!

Goodbye, dear sweet Peter Pan Goes Wrong on West End. Maybe we'll meet again someday.

so sad about no hohr this week, but i’m now very curious about what’s dropping this week instead 👀

#i’ve been emotionally relying on listening to hohr #so this is devastating news for me 😭 #but obvs the cast’s health is more important #(presumably ellie and shields because they’re out of ppgw atm) #so i hope they’re doing alright #hell or high rollers #mischief theatre #mischief comedy

So, like, I know that Shields famously finds Hook to be an exhausting role and he just spent six months doing it, and that Hen runs the whole company and has a book coming out and is super busy, and that Jon has a whole baby at home (<3). These are all big, real reasons for them not to be in the Christmas West End PPGW cast.

But like also there are a bunch of silly little gremlins in my brain going "hey, hey, hey, the writers aren't in the cast, are they focused on writing something new, are they writing something new, huh huh huh????"

seeing peter pan goes wrong was so much fun, and it makes up for all my disappointment that I couldn't see the jet lag premiere in-person yesterday due to "I cannot easily Metro to/from that this late at night" issues. (the cruel irony of enjoying train content youtubers who you cannot functionally take the train to because local transit infrastructure is broken.)

I was worried that I wouldn't be as excited since I've seen the PPGW BBC recording, but no, there were different jokes/scenes not in the BBC version (the undersea scene, and Dennis relaying lines from the squabbling couple, for example) - I love how they adapted it for an American audience (Bradley Whitford as the narrator holding up a SAG-AFTRA sign! Chris taking potshots at the audience - "this is why you don't get Shakespeare") - and it's just so, so charming and wonderful to see them perform from a stage.

tbh, i was kinda disappointed that Dave Hearn wasn't there, because og Max had my heart ever since I watched PPGW for the first time (not being able to hear his triumphant "snap snap!" in person is a tragedy), but the other guy playing him did fine, and it really was nice that it was nearly all the original British cast. it was just about everything I wanted to see from mischief theatre as a fan who's only been able to see their officially recorded productions. i was still laughing even though I anticipated most of the gags/punchlines, and it was so cool to get the playbill with all the in-universe cornley stuff too.

it's still wild to me how the YouTube algorithm recommended ppgw to me since it was illegally uploaded by someone, and it came at the right time since I drastically needed cheering up, and four years later, I've finally seen them in person.

#mischief theatre #peter pan goes wrong #kyrilu: personal #also it was great to have a day out in the city - i had lunch & went to an art museum

[gunpowder-tim]

honestly im a little bit sad that not all the people from the og cast are going to be performing ppgw but i get to see chris leask as trevor so i dont care about anything else ever

I think in ppgw the stunt cast character should be Nana. Not Robert. Nana.

[reallyhardy]

went through the goes-wrong-verse playbills/programmes - that is, ‘the play that goes wrong’ and ‘peter pan goes wrong’ (thank you @cornleypolytechnicgoeswrong​ !) trying to piece together each society member’s career within the society PLUS if possible whatever it was they were doing at the polytechnic (university) course-wise, along with whatever other character snippets they give. this is mostly to inform me when writing but i thought it’d be useful for other mischief/goes wrong fans!

chris bean:

as of TPTGW is the ‘newly elected’ head of the drama society, and is known at the university for his charitable & philanhropic work. he has six acting credits within the polytechnic to his name.

i was going to presume his choice of course at the uni was acting or directing, but his PPGW bio states that his ‘dacting’ (directing and acting) is all self-taught, so who knows. maybe he’s just in the society because of his aforementioned charitable work.

robert grove:

has starred in 40 productions with the society since 2002 (when he began work at cornley polytechnic as a caretaker - i’m taking this to mean he was never actually a student there.) anyway wow explains why they call him a “veteran actor” lol.

he offers acting lessons (reacting, gesturing, emotioning and acting) and can be contacted via twitter @robertgoodactor. i’ve looked this twitter account up and it does exist it’s just not been used since 2017 - that said there are some in-character photos of henry lewis as robert and nancy zamit as annie on there and plenty of tweets.

he runs an extremely dubiously safe cornley youth theatre program and can be contacted at his email [email protected] (membership fees are non-refundable.)

trevor watson:

in TPTGW is arbitrarily from ‘the north east’ (rob falconer’s portrayal, whereas chris leask’s portrayal is firmly and specifically scouse.)

he has a twitter account (rob falconer’s portrayal) @trevtechie, with i think probably the most tweets of the cornley twitters. stopped being updated in 2017.

his participation in haversham was to complete an electronics module - as the light and sound technician i’d assume his course was in this kinda field.

he states that after haversham he wants to never work with the cornley drama society again, but as of PPGW he’s “following in his parents footsteps” and has pivoted to possibly actually studying stage management. (his PPGW bio states that he’s in his final year at the uni for the 3rd time running. so it could mean his staying on with cornley is like partially due to failing his course?)

dennis tyde:

in his TPTGW bio it states that he joined the drama society after failing to get in to any other societies.

he didn’t live on university campus and commuted in from his parents’ house. he mostly just wanted to make friends - he’s interested in snooker and wants to meet like-minded people.

in his PPGW bio he still wants to make friends and says you can reach him via twitter @dennistyde. i checked this account too and again it does exist but hasn’t been used since 2013, and there are only 3 tweets so its much more bare-bones than the others. i like his one tweet about drinking a mug of bovril to calm his nerves before a show.

as of 2021 in promotional vids we learn that dennis and robert now live together.

max bennett:

in TPTGW bio it says he was a first year studying human geography and crime which i was surprised about but sure okay. it also says here that he happily donated “a large portion of his recent inheritance” to the society to help fund it.

at the bottom of TPTGW’s cast page it states that the west end performance of the play is “made possible by a generous legacy from claude bennett” who’s presumably max’s grandfather? or just father? idk

his TPTGW bio also says his favourite movie is the legend of bagger vance which i’ve never seen but is apparently a will smith golf movie.

his hobbies as listed in his PPGW bio are chess, cooking & hanging out with friends and fam. he also dedicates his performance in PPGW to his grandma claire, which is sweet.

annie twilloil:

as of TPTGW she’s designed, built, painted, costumed & stage managed every cornley show for the past 3 years. in the PPGW bio, it states she’s studying cognitive behavioural therapy and pottery, and has taken up life drawing at the student’s union (as the model.)

after haversham, she apparently had an internship lined up at the bolton octagon.

she has WILD backstory in her PPGW bio that says she dedicated her performance to her estranged husband julian who she hoped was in the audiance and two children frangipani and ylang-ylang. not sure if the kids are with her or with the husband but either way, wild. nuts. pretty funny but also pretty tragic.

she’s also got an ad out looking for a new bloke (i suppose if her husband isn’t in the audience) apparently she’s been left by boyfriends previously for an air hostess, a stripper, and a coal miner.

she also enjoys knitting and playing the banjolin (an instrument she made herself.) her email address is [email protected].

she has a twitter account that again hasnt been used since 2017 (@annietwiloil). a couple tweets chronicle dave hearn’s shoulder dislocation but as max so i guess its canon that max also dislocated his shoulder, but he did it while trying to open a twix? lmao

sandra wilkinson:

in her TPTGW bio it states that haversham manor is her 11th production with the company. idk how frequently they put on shows.

she won some kind of local kids beauty pageant in 1998 and did some modelling for a local restaurant (the sunam balti house, which apparently the cornley crew frequent? or have at least been to - seems they struggled with spicyness levels there, especially dennis.)

nothing on her course at the university, i might just take a stab and assume she was actually doing acting, since her bio is mostly about her being a performer.

she’s a big fan of jeremy irvine, they mention him in both of her bios.

jonathan harris:

is a total health & fitness guy. his course at the uni is in physical education and he’s also a model, though who’s to say what for. in PPGW this is expanded and he’s moved on to being a combo model/actor/photographer/lifecoach.

he loves his outdoor sports: mountain biking & kayaking are noted.

he had a bath salts advert out and he hoped it was gonna go national.

lucy grove:

her surname IS grove! i wasn’t sure, but that’s confirmed. not really much about her in there, because the bio is written by robert and he just used it to gas himelf up.

can’t tell if she’s a student at the university or just in the society through robert. genuinely there’s just not a lot to go on when it comes to lucy.

another note is that the murder at haversham manor and the version of peter pan that the cornley crew perform are both written by ‘susie h. k. brideswell’ who i guess either chris knows or chris is a big fan of?

other notes... they try so hard to make out like the characters aren't all the same age like implying that robert is genuinely older than most of them etc etc but ofc the cast featured in the TV broadcasts are all visibly the same age... ofc all this is just comedy innit so you can take it or leave it

also i realised that the american version of TPTGW calls it “the cornley university drama society” since i guess you guys dont have polytechnics over there. a polytechnic is like... a university that offers the arts (among the classics you know science law what have you) basically. by 2021 in promotional videos etc. shields in character as chris has dropped “polytechnic” altogether from the group’s name (but varies between calling it ‘the cornley drama society’ and ‘the cornley amateur dramatics society’) i assume to reflect how much time has passed since the group put on their first production under chris’ leadership - and that now they’re simply operating unattached to the university because they’ve become a real family. love love love, sillyness and love.

PPGW Closing Night Pre-Show Shenanigans!!

Footage that I got from closing night! Everyone was out and about including people who usually don’t go out into the audience during the preshow - Sandra, Annie, and Max. All of the understudies were out as stagehands - Bren was in her Tessa outfit! Got to talk to Blair and Bartley who introduced himself as Rennis (Bartley covers for Dennis when Jon is out). Got to talk with Dennis and Max. Got yelled at by Chris. Trevor yelled at us about five times 😆. @icee-queens got pictures with Sandra while I got some with Jonathan!! (never going to recover from that haha). Truly the best night!!! Thank you so much to @icee-queens for joining me on this amazing adventure 💜
