My 13 year old twins loved it!

Exceeded expectations
"This play was phenomenal. I wish I had known that I could’ve brought my kid to it. I’ve been eight-year-old that I think would’ve loved every second of it and I think the play would’ve been appropriate for him to show exceeded every expectation I had and could not recommend it enough."

The Play That Gets All The Right Laughs
"Before the play even started the vibe was set for fun. Laughed the whole time with only a couple lulls. This show is not going to yield some deep life introspection, but if you want to laugh and feel the energy of a happy crowd, go enjoy. A great time. "

Laughed for the entire 2 hours.
"The actors have great pace. However make sure to keep an eye open for sight gags. The set is also an actor!"

The Play That Went Wrong So Well
"If you want to laugh for 2 1/2 hours straight, then this is the show for you. It’s incredibly charming and witty and is so creative. It’s the perfect amount of meta without feeling like too much. The audience was laughing nonstop. Amazing performances and stunts. A must see. "

Hilarious must-see!
"This play keeps you laughing throughout, while the very talented cast (and set designers) blunder their way through solving a murder. The cast adds humour to the show with impromptu interactions with the audience. Enjoyed the whole play and talented cast!"

Non stop laughs
"If you are a fan of madcap comedy this is a play for you. This was my second time seeing it on Broadway plus I saw a regional production of it last year. It is non stop silliness and the actors never make it feel anything but fresh. There were children in front of me in this performance and they totally loved it as did my 40 year old daughter and I. A play for all ages. "

The RIGHT show to see.
"From the moment you took your seat, there was chatter from other patrons around me whispering how "funny" this show was. The non stop connection with the audience, the comfort the actors had in their role as they connected with each line and written scene was immensely incredible and hysterical. I haven't bellie laughed in a long time. This ensemble was beyond my expectations. A true team of wonderful actors doing what they love and sharing that with us. A perfect night"

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!
