The plot of the play is one that will keep you laughing during the entire performance. The Play That Goes Wrong presents the story of a group of students at The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society who are struggling very hard to get past their second disastrous year. In their desperate attempt to graduate, they stage a 1920s murder mystery play. To their utter disappointment, everything goes wrong during the performance, and the outcomes are hysterically funny. The play wouldn’t be so hilarious if it weren't for the full commitment of a high-grade cast and creative team.
