2024 Fall Play: The Play That Goes Wrong!

2024 Fall Play: The Play That Goes Wrong!

Oct 11

Moreau Center for the Arts, O'Laughlin Auditorium

**If you are looking for the South Bend Civic Theater's Performace of The Play That Goes Wrong, showing October 4-6th, please visit www.SBCT.org for ticketing and additional information.**

This ALL SMC comedy is a hilarious hybrid of Monty Python and Sherlock Holmes. Welcome to 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), it’s “A RIOTOUS EXPLOSION OF COMEDY!” (The Daily Beast) and “TONS OF FUN FOR ALL AGES!” (HuffPost).

This play focuses on the fictitious Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society, which has received a substantial bequest and is putting on a performance of a 1920s murder mystery play. During the performance, a play within a play, a plethora of disasters befall the cast, including doors sticking, props falling from the walls, and floors collapsing, leading to a predictably ridiculous but hilarious climax.

Seating is general admission only, no assigned seating for this show.
