(Nehalem, OR) – Prepare for a side-splitting night of chaos and calamity as Riverbend Players presents The Play That Goes Wrong. This Olivier Award-winning comedy opens on May 31st, 2024, and runs through June 16th, 2024, at the NCRD Performing Arts Center in Nehalem.
The Play That Goes Wrong follows the calamitous opening night of a fictional amateur drama society’s production of a 1920s murder mystery, “The Murder at Haversham Manor.” As the title suggests, everything that can go wrong – does go wrong! From falling props and cast injuries to technical failures and memory lapses, the show is a hilarious testament to the fine art of theatrical disaster.
“The Play That Goes Wrong is a non-stop laugh riot,” says director Frank Squillo. “It’s a brilliantly written farce that pokes fun at the conventions of theater while keeping audiences on the edge of their seats – wondering what outrageous mishap will happen next.”
The Riverbend Players’ production features a talented ensemble cast of local actors, including Juli Stratton, Patrick Conner, Bryonie Arnold, Dawson Carter, Wynn Rankin, Leslie Gestautas, Kate Lacaze, and Mark Bartrom.
The Play That Goes Wrong is a perfect outing for anyone looking for a laugh-out-loud comedy. Don’t miss this uproarious production – it’s guaranteed to leave you in stitches!
