Directed by Melee Hutton, The Play That Goes Wrong is a farcical comedy about a well-meaning amateur drama society attempting to stage a classic murder mystery, The Murder at Haversham Manor. From the moment the curtain rises, however, everything that can go wrong spectacularly does. As the hapless members of the Cornley Drama Society struggle through collapsing sets, missed cues, forgotten lines, and mounting technical disasters, they remain determined to carry on... no matter the cost. The result is a riotous, fast-paced spectacle that invites the audience to revel in the chaos all the way to the final curtain call.
