Spy Movie: The Play!

Spy Movie: The Play!
Play
  • 29th Apr 2025 - 18th Jul 2025

A love letter to the spy films we all know and love, Spy Movie: The Play! is a farcical comedy that creates a Hollywood movie on a fringe theatre budget. Agent Blonde has 24 hours to save the world. The only things standing in her way are dastardly villains, an outrageous plot, and... a lack of funding.

When Hollywood rejects her script, a frustrated screenwriter invites you, an audience of producers, to a one-night-only presentation of The Greatest Spy Movie (n)Ever Made!

Produced by Norwich Theatre and written by Jack Michael Stacey and Matthew Howell, the minds behind The New Musketeers (Trinity Theatre) and stars of The Play That Goes Wrong and Peter Pan Goes Wrong, Spy Movie: The Play! is a hilarious homage to Bond movies and fringe theatre suitable for the whole family.
