The Play That Goes Wrong

Show Description:

The Play That Goes Wrong is a fast-paced comedy that follows the accident-prone Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society as they attempt to stage a serious 1920s murder mystery, The Murder at Haversham Manor. From the moment the curtain rises, everything that can go wrong does: collapsing sets, forgotten lines, misplaced props, technical failures, and increasingly desperate actors trying to stay in character. As the mystery unravels, the production descends into hilarious chaos, turning theatrical disaster into nonstop farce. Written by: Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, and Henry Shields
