The Play That Goes Wrong has been delighting audiences since its 2012 London debut. The farcical play-within-a-play follows the Cornley Drama Society’s production of “The Murder at Haversham Manor.” Despite their best efforts, the production rapidly goes from bad to utterly disastrous, with madcap mishaps—from an unconscious leading lady to a self-destructing set.
Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Resumes and head shots welcome, but not required.
You may download the audition form below and complete it prior to auditions. Copies will also be available at the theater.
