The Play That Goes Wrong is a play by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, and Henry Shields of Mischief Theatre Company. The story follows a performance of a murder mystery, where the ill-fated theatre company encounters numerous mishaps.
The original production has been running since 2012 in London, where it won Best New Comedy at the 2015 Laurence Olivier Awards.[1] Since 2014, the play has undertaken five tours of the UK, and a Broadway production ran from 2017–2019 and then continued off-Broadway.
