Slapstick comedy at its finest
"This show was a very funny farce with quick-witted actors who also were able to pull off impressive physical comedy. The set is the final character in this show that kept us laughing all the way to the end."

The highlight of our NYC trip
"We did a lot of things on our trip, including seeing several Broadway productions, and this was a highlight for all of us. It was so fun, so funny and we were all hysterically laughing and interacting with the cast the whole show. Make sure to get there early for preshow entertainment. 10/10 would recommend, but especially to anyone who has ever performed on stage in any capacity. So genius. "

About The Play That Goes Wrong

Welcome to opening night of the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor. This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a Broadway show—a ramshackle set, a leading lady with a concussion, and a corpse that can’t play dead. It’s a classic murder mystery… and it’s a mystery how it ever got to Broadway!
