MURFREESBORO – THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG is set to open Friday, September 15, at The Center for the Arts.
“We are excited to share The Play That Goes Wrong sold-out the run before opening night! We wanted more of our community to have the opportunity to see the show, so we have added an additional show on Saturday, September 23,” shares Keri Boe, director of theatre & operations.
“Break a leg!” takes on a whole new meaning for a woefully misguided troupe of players at the Cornley University Society’s opening night performance of The Murder at Haversham Manor. An unconscious leading lady, a corpse who can’t play dead, a ruffled detective, and a word-mangling butler (among others) must battle against technical gaffes, forgotten lines, and sabotaging scenery in a quest to arrive all in one piece at the final curtain call. Part Monty Python, part Sherlock Holmes, all mayhem, this 1920s whodunit is disastrously delightful.
The Play That Goes Wrong is directed by Aaron Johnson, rated PG-13, and presented by City Auto.
