The play that goes wrong
The Olivier Award Winning smash hit comedy The Play That Goes Wrong will be at Theatr Clwyd, Mold, for one week only as part of a UK tour.
Winning eleven international awards, including the 2015 Olivier Award for Best New Comedy and a 2017 Tony Award for its Broadway transfer, The Play That Goes Wrong continues to play to sold-out houses in the West End, whilst enjoying its new status as Broadway’s longest running play.
Co-written by Mischief Theatre company members Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields, The Play That Goes Wrong is a highly physical comedy packed with finely-tuned farce and Buster Keaton inspired slapstick revolving around the ‘Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society’ which attempts to put on a 1920s’ murder mystery.
Bringing it to Theatr Clywd from April 9-14 is the Mischief Theatre which made their TV debut on the BBC with Peter Pan Goes Wrong, starring David Suchet as the guest narrator and returned to BBC One with a brand new production, A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong.
The Play That Goes Wrong is directed by Mark Bell, with set designs by Nigel Hook, lighting by Ric Mountjoy and costumes by Roberto Surace.
