The Play That Goes Wrong

The Cornley University Drama Society takes over our stage with their performance of the 1920’s whodunnit The Murder at Haversham Manor. For this inept troupe of thespians, each moment ushers in a new catastrophe – broken props, missed lines, and even an unconscious leading lady! Luckily for us, their slapstick struggle to overcome and get the play back on track is utterly hysterical. Prepare for one of the funniest nights you’ll ever have at the theatre!
