The Play That Goes Wrong
Jul 24 all-day
Flat Rock Playhouse

July 24 – August 23

Find your way to ‘the Rock’ as this award-winning comedy takes center stage. Welcome to opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor, where the hapless Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society’s attempt to stage this 1920’s murder mystery devolves into madcap mayhem. From an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines), the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to survive until their final curtain call. Ready to laugh till it hurts? Book your tickets NOW for the show that has been hailed as “a gut-busting hit” by critics and fans alike!

“…an unexpected, gut-busting hit…one of those breakneck exercises in idiocy that make you laugh till you cry…It starts off punch-drunk and just keeps getting drunker.” —The New York Times.

Event Times: 2:00 PM & 7:30 PM

Ticket Prices: $50 / $60 / $70
