The Play That Goes Wrong opens at the Actors Guild of Parkersburg on June 16.
The show unfolds on opening night of the Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a show—an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines).
The show is based very much in British comedy that plays on physical humor and puns. Fans of Monty Python, Mr. Bean, Fawlty Towers, and even the Carol Burnett Show, will really enjoy the well-crafted humor.
Curtain time for The Play That Goes Wrong is 8 PM on June 16, 17, 23, and 24; 6 PM on June 18; and 2:30 PM on June 25. Tickets cost $20 ($18 for students and seniors) and are available now at https://www.actors-guild.com/buy-tickets.html.
The production is sponsored by Napoli’s and is rated PG (for British humor).
