Good evening. I'm Inspector Carter. Take my case. This must be Charles Haversham! I'm sorry
this must've given you all a damn shock. After benefitting from a large and sudden inheritance
the inept and accident-prone Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society embark on producing an ambitious
1920s murder mystery. They are delighted that neither casting issues nor technical hitches
currently stand in their way. However hilarious disaster ensues and the cast start to crack
under the pressure but can they get the production back on track before the final curtain
falls? The Play That Goes Wrong is a farcical murder mystery a play within a play conceived
and performed by award-winning company Theatre Mischief. It was first published as a one-act
play and is published in this new edition as a two-act play.
