The Play That Goes Wrong at the Duchess Theatre

About
Mischief Theatre presents Olivier award-winning comedy The Play That Goes Wrong at the Duchess Theatre.
What is The Play That Goes Wrong about?
The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society are putting on a 1920s murder mystery play called "The Murder at Haversham Manor", but as the title of the show suggests, everything that can go wrong does…
The play within the play is rife with clichés and over the top acting and it becomes apparent from the beginning that things are not going according to plan. The accident-prone actors battle against all odds to make it through to the end, with hilarious consequences during two hours of side-splitting laughs and mayhem for theatre goers. From props that don't work to actors missing their cues, the play is full of mishaps that only get worse as the show falls apart.
The production culminates in a chaotic and hilarious finale, which is sure to leave you laughing long after the curtain falls.
