The Play That Goes Wrong
The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society attempts to stage a 1920s whodunit called *The Murder at Haversham Manor*, but everything that can go wrong does in spectacular, hilarious fashion. This award-winning farce follows the society’s disastrous production as set pieces collapse, actors forget lines, and the plot spirals into chaos. Keegan Theatre presents one of the most anticipated comedies in Washington, D.C., this summer, promising an evening of nonstop laughter.
