About The Show
The Play That Goes Wrong is the brilliant new farce directed by Mark Bell and written by Henry Lewis, Jonathon Sayers and Henry Shields of Mischief Theatre Company. It was a smash hit at the Edinburgh Comedy Festival and is now showing at the Duchess Theatre in London's West End.
The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society has decided to perform a murder mystery play. However, it soon becomes apparent that the cast are incredibly hopeless as mishap follows mishap. The only thing being murdered here is the play they are valiantly trying to stage.
Everything that can go wrong, as the title of the comedy suggests, does go wrong. The show has been a resounding success wherever it as played and has left audiences in helpless fits of laughter.
