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!

Not Noel Coward
But that’s not what you’re paying to see. However, there is more than just slap stick to the play. The real treat is the individual reaction by each cast member as things go wrong and how they deal with it. If you want to go deep enough the play is a metaphor for life and how we all face problems. But for me I would take as face value as just good fun. So don’t go expecting Coward or Shaw but relax, enjoy the play for what it is and have a good time. ... Read more

Don’t Miss This One!
I went to this play last night. I really had no expectations since I hadn’t read anything about the story line.
Do. Not. Miss. This. Play. Not only is the storyline hilarious, but EACH character/actor made me laugh from start to finish. Their timing, expressions, and delivery was superb.
I thoroughly enjoyed each moment and all of the laughter. It was exactly what I needed. Thank you. ... Read more
