Why see The Play That Goes Wrong?
The tour that goes wrong
Welcome to the opening night of 'The Murder at Haversham Manor' where students of the Cornley University Drama Society are attempting to stage this 1920s production. However, everything that can go wrong is and the opening night is quickly going from bad to disastrous. With an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can't play dead and actors who trip over everything they struggle to get to their final curtain call.
Co-written by Mischief Theatre members, Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields, The Play That Goes Wrong transferred over to the Great White Way in 2017, scooping two Tony Awards, echoing the success it had on its debut in London's West End.
Hilarious, mad-cap and full of farce, don't miss this wonderful new theatrical experience as it takes to stages across the country on its first tour!

Hilarious British Slapstick
The name of the producing theatre company says it all, Mischief Theatre. With nothing short of a miracle, The Murder at Haversham Manor his heading out on tour! Thankfully though it is merely a guise for the brilliant The Play That Goes Wrong!

The Play That Goes Wrong
The actors and stage performance was very good. I gave this review a 4 star rating due to the placement of one of the actors. I have seen this production in London and Syracuse. The stage crew manager is supposed to be seen by the entire audience. The people with balcony seats could not see him at the Kennedy Center. This was a bad design decision. People pay a lot of money to see a show like this. To see all the characters. It was confusing for the friends I took for the first time. ... Read more
