VISITING COMPANIES
November 29- December 29: 1812 Productions’ The Play That Goes Wrong
Various showtimes
$38-52
1812 Productions is bringing back their production of The Play That Goes Wrong after its sellout run in the Spring of 2023. This farcical murder mystery and play within a play, conceived by award-winning company Mischief Theatre, looks at the inept and accident-prone Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society as they embark on producing an ambitious 1920s murder mystery. As hilarious disaster after disaster ensues and the cast starts to crack under the pressure, can they get the production back on track before the final curtain falls?
