Farce, Subscription Show

The show must go on… no matter what!

“…an unexpected, gut-busting hit…one of those breakneck exercises in idiocy that make you laugh till you cry…It starts off punch-drunk and just keeps getting drunker.”—The New York Times.

It’s opening night of the Cornley Drama Society’s newest murder mystery, The Murder at Haversham Manor, and disaster is waiting in the wings. The set is falling apart, the props are missing, and the actors can’t seem to remember their lines—or stay on their feet. As the cast fights to keep the show on track, the evening unravels into a perfectly choreographed comedy of errors. Part Agatha Christie, part Monty Python, The Play That Goes Wrong is a wildly funny backstage romp that proves the show must go on… no matter what. Recommended for ages 8+.
