We sat down with Eboni Dixon whose playing in Good Luck, Studio (from the same creators of the Play that Goes Wrong show). The show runs at the Mercury Theatre (30-15th Oct) followed by Salisbury Playhouse (18th-5th Nov) and Yvonne Arnaud Theatre (8-12th Nov).
- First of all – let’s start with can you summarise the show in one sentence?
A sinister comedy that takes a twisted look behind the scenes of a beloved children’s TV show.
- Now can you give us two reasons off the top of your head to see the show?
1 – It is a laugh-out-loud show that is particularly perfect for anyone with a dark sense of humour 😈
2 – It is something a little different from the classic Mischief “Goes Wrong” shows – in the best way!
- How about three things to keep an eye out for during the show?
1 – A flexible medic
2 – A cockney frog
3 – A distressed BAFTA
- What have you enjoyed most about working with the acclaimed team at Mischief?
I love how collaborative this process has been – being given the opportunity to originate a character in a show like this has been incredible. And of course, working alongside both Henrys and the rest of the Mischief bunch has been an honour and invaluable learning experience!
- Finally, are you having nightmares about Wibble the Dragon as you approach press night or are you feeling confident and ready to get going?!
Haha, well, not so much a nightmare, but I did have a dream the other night that I was in a shop looking for frog-related merchandise – I wanted to buy it all! Other than my froggy dreams, no nightmares! Just very nervous and excited!
