Description

The time is right to see The Play That Goes Wrong, Broadway’s funniest and longest-running play!

Welcome to the opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. With an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines), come see why Ben Brantley of The New York Times calls The Play That Goes Wrong “A gut-busting hit!”

This Olivier Award-winning comedy is a hilarious hybrid of Monty Python and Sherlock Holmes. It’s “a riotous explosion of comedy!” (The Daily Beast) and “tons of fun for all ages!” (HuffPost). Cindy Adams of the New York Post has just one word for you: “Go!” Get tickets now; it would be WRONG to wait!

Duration:
Approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes, including intermission

Audience:
Recommended for ages 8 and older

"Great show for theater geeks!"

Reviewed October 14, 2024

Can't say enough how impressed we were with The Play that Goes Wrong. The set was amazing in that it falls apart without anyone getting hurt. I loved how the cast broke the 4th wall both before and during the show. I know this is a show that's been around for a bit, but I can't imagine a better performance than this off-Broadway production.

Reviewed September 06, 2024

This was a comedy masterpiece! I had tears streaming down my face. It has a Monty Python-like feel to it. Each character has a wonderful quirk that kept us laughing the whole time.

Wonderfully funny, intelligent, fast paced, slapstick humor. We were sitting up front and felt like we were part of the plot. You will not be disappointed!

Funniest play I’ve seen-two hours of laughter, can’t fault it, loved it !!! The cast and set were amazing, timing was perfect and it was off broadway so cheaper tickets. Go and see it.

"Pass on this one"

Reviewed June 01, 2024

If you like slapstick comedy (think airplane , the movie) this one is for you. Personally, not my cup of tea. While the actors had some energy & wit, it wasn't (off Broadway) caliber. Saw a local small community theatre show for $20 recently that I thought was better. Wish I had sprung $$ for a real broadway show. Sorry this one was a no for me. :(
