Synopsis: "The Play That Goes Wrong is a riotous comedy about the theatre. The play introduces "The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society" who are attempting to put on a 1920s' murder mystery, but as the title suggests, everything that can go wrong...does, as the accident prone thespians battle on against all the odds to get to their final curtain call."

The off-Broadway production of The Play That Goes Wrong will be directed by Matt DiCarlo, based on Broadway direction by Mark Bell.

The Play That Goes Wrong will play its final performance at the Lyceum Theatre on January 6, 2019, before previews commence at New World Stages on February 11, 2019.
