producer: Alka Sippy
(in English)

A hilarious comedy in which, as its name suggests, everything goes wrong. Seemingly a whodunit involving a corpse, a suspect and a detective, nothing is as it seems on stage – actors cannot be trusted with their lines, the corpse cannot be trusted to play dead, the set cannot be trusted to hold up, and the production team cannot be trusted to stay off-stage. Until the play ends, and even through the curtain call, it is never clear what is ‘part of the play’ and what has gone ‘horribly wrong’ in The Play That Goes Wrong.

Play duration: 120 minutes (includes intermission)
