Event Description

Please join Suffolk Performing Arts Office for our Pioneer Performance Series production of THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG on February 23, 24 & 25 in the Modern Theatre.

Free tickets are available here

In THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG, the phrase Break a leg! takes on a whole new meaning for a woefully misguided troupe of players at the opening night 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.

There will be a Talk Back Discussion with the cast & crew following the performance on Thursday the 23rd, that the audience is encouraged to participate in.
