Saxon Stage is excited to present its fall play, The Play That Goes Wrong! From the creators of Mischief comes this award-winning Broadway and West End comedy. It’s opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor, a 1920s whodunit where everything that can go wrong does—sets collapse, lines are missed, and even the corpse won’t stay dead. But the determined cast presses on, delivering non-stop laughs through total theatrical mayhem. A hilarious blend of Monty Python and Sherlock Holmes, this global sensation will have you laughing from start to finish—and maybe even after the curtain falls.
Show Dates and Times: Thurs, Nov 20, 7:30 pm; Fri, Nov 21, 7:30 pm; Sat, Nov 22, 7 pm; Sun, Nov 23, 2:30 pm
Tickets go on sale now through Etix. Prices are: Adults - $16, Students - $10, Alumni - $8 and Senior Citizens - $5.
