The Play That Goes Wrong

Cincinnati Shakespeare Company presents “The Play That Goes Wrong,” an uproarious comedy and Off-Broadway hit.

It’s Opening Night at the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor and the stakes have never been higher.  But none of the on-stage drama is in the script! The theater is filled with accident-prone actors, a corpse that can’t play dead to save his life, and a knocked-out knock out of a leading lady. When all goes wrong, can this theater company make it to Opening Night and bring down the house (in a good way)? In this fantastic, farcical, fiasco of a show and Off-Broadway and West End comedic hit, the age-old adage is true: “the show must go wrong!” oops sorry, we mean “the show must go on!”

May 24 – June 16, 2024
