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!

for those of you who left after the first act!

You missed the best part of the play.....yes, it was corny, yes, it was over acted, but that's what made it funny.....the second act tied it all together. Its was a murder mystery play, they were acting, by the second act you put everything together and saw the humor! We loved it and if you liked Monty Python you will like it too. ... Read more
