The show was excellent! The actors were superb, delivering the usual humour from Mischief Theatre. The plot had been well researched and was very true to real life growing up. Amazing!

Having seen The play that Goes Wrong and Comedy of a Bank a Robbery, I had to come and see Groan Ups. I was not disappointed. I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. The scenes and music were very well done too. So looking forward to Magic goes Wrong :-)

Groan Ups was great
31 October 2019
Fantastic show, with some real laugh out loud moments. I would say, however that some of the content is really not suitable for children and I saw a lot of uncomfortable parents in the audience!

Another Brilliant Show
30 October 2019
Totally love Mischief Theatre and they served up the goods once again. The only thing I would say is, if your kids are fans of "...goes wrong" this is probably not suitable. Lots of jokes are adult and since comedy requires an ability to appreciate the situation it really bypasses anyone who has yet to leave school. That said - still lots of hilarious (and clever) slapstick.
Some serious moments, touching on important issues which are very sensitively handled. But I do wonder if there needs to be a Trigger warning for people who have been through some of the more serious experiences that lie at the heart of the play.

A perfect end to half term
27 October 2019
I went to see Groan UPS with my Dad to finish of my Half term before I return to Uni, I had high expectations for this play and it did not disappoint at all. I was laughing more in those 2 hours then I probably have done in October itself. I recommend seeing this and any other production from Mischief. I’m sure they could rival Monty Python.

Thank you for a funny and enjoyable show. It was a family trip out to the theatre ages 50 plus , 21 and 24 We all enjoyed it and found the characters well played and kept our attention and smiles. Not something we’d rave about but would recommend

Not what I expected
3 October 2019
I would have liked to rave about Groan Ups but I was disappointed. I think the actors were brilliant as they usually are. We have seen Play that goes wrong and Peter Pan goes wrong. The beginning was very promising. The cast were young children acting as children do..watching them was very funny...The scene then changes with the cast as teenagers. This is where I feel the whole play changes direction and becomes more of a story and trying to get laughs exploring adolescent behaviour and attitude..sexual talk, exploration of teenage feelings, sexual orientation become a focal point which leaves you feeling uncomfortable for family viewing..The comedy becomes a side line to the story as opposed to being its sole purpose. Moving onto adulthood the characters all meet up again at a school reunion. Everything comes to a head as past issues are brought back to be dealt with...The play shows how things in the past can affect your life and shapes the person you become..this is all well and good but not expected from the Mishief company..If you want a play with out and out laughs that are constant with silly humour as previous plays you won't find it here...

Mischief theatre does it again!
26 September 2019
Having seen ‘The Play That Goes Wrong’, ‘The Comedy about a Bank Robbery’ and ‘Mischief Movie Night’ , as well as watching ‘Peter Pan Goes Wrong’ and ‘A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong’ on TV, I was very excited when I heard Mischief Theatre were making another play. I was partly curious and nervous as I was unsure how something could match my enjoyment of their previous works however this uncertainty was definitely misplaced! ‘Groan Ups’ certainly delivers on both hilarious comedy and a heartfelt story of growing up. I found myself both laughing hysterically and feeling great sympathy for the characters.
As always the intricate set adds to the performance like it does in all Mischief productions. It offers a familiar location for the action if the play and adds to the comedy in a wonderful way.
The performances all round were incredible and the writer/actors Lewis, Sayer and Shields have outdone themselves.
All round a very enjoyable experience and I look forward to their next production!!!

Another Great show from this company!
23 September 2019
Myself and my son love every show this The Mischief Theatre Company have produced and this one is no exception. It was extra special as it was my sons 17th birthday and he didn't stop laughing all night. He especially loved the character 'Paul!' Thanks again for another wonderful show!

A slow burn
22 September 2019
As a big fan of the Mischief Theatre I was really looking forward to this production and it didn’t disappoint. After a slow start to the first half the second part showed the company at its hysterical best once again, more of a story to this one and thoroughly enjoyable. Stick with it!
