Called "A GUT-BUSTING HIT" (The New York Times) and "THE FUNNIEST PLAY BROADWAY HAS EVER SEEN" (HuffPost), this classic murder mystery is chock-full of mishaps and madcap mania delivering "A RIOTOUS EXPLOSION OF COMEDY" (Daily Beast). Welcome to opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. With an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can't play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines), it's "TONS OF FUN FOR ALL AGES" (HuffPost) and "COMIC GOLD" (Variety) – sure to bring down the house!

    Better than expected!

    by sheikkonan on 4/28/22Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    I'm not much into Broadway, just wanted to see some theather in Chicago since is so renamed. Bought the play for sounding simple and to share with the family. Got the surprise to love the play! So funny, creative, can't imagine how difficult was for professionals to make what they are told not to and do it amazingly. "Learn the rules and then learn how to break them", a challenge in acting, physically, being close to their viewers, every detail, every reference to what is needed behind what we see. I was translating to my mom who barely speaks english and thanks to the acting she understood better and was smiling. Also kids in the room were very happy. Absolutely loved the printed info, the actors, the story, the art, the environment! Arrive earlier and don't lose between the pauses, keep in the seat enjoying every detail.

    The play went wrong

    by Yahya on 4/25/22Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    But a little too wrong in the second act. Still very funny though.

    Fun

    by J. M. on 4/19/22Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    It was a fun play. It was pretty much what I expected from the title. I was entertained, it isn’t a thought provoking, or a play that creates dialogue and discussion, but we laughed a loud , and glad we saw it.

    Lots of laughter

    by M from Canada on 4/17/22Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    I enjoyed the small theatre atmosphere of the Broadway Playhouse. The Play That Goes Wrong is very funny, but almost too full of action. It never stops. But I loved it. Most of the actors were amazing. I was able to get a reduced price ticket with a code from the Chicago Broadway plays website that let me choose my seat, and the best part was not using horrible HOTTIX which does not offer much choice.

    Great play!!

    by Skyhor on 4/16/22Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    This was the most amusing funny crazy play that I have seen in a long long time. I recommend it to anybody that wants a good laugh and enjoy a couple hours away from the crazy world that we're living in

    Hilarious!

    by GroBro on 4/16/22Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    The comedic timing throughout the play was so impressive. The physical comedy was extremely difficult to pull off and the whole cast and crew did it so effortlessly. Had a blast going here with my friend!

    Laughed all the way through!

    by KSL on 4/13/22Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    This was a really funny play — I haven’t laughed in such a sustained way in a really long time! The theater’s size makes for a wonderfully intimate production, not a bad seat in the house.

    Hilarious!

    by C.C. on 4/11/22Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    The show was a blast! Call backs to events before the play even started, breaking the fourth wall to insult audience members, complete chaos by the end; Everything you don't want in a play. It keeps you on your toes with some surprise blunders. Great comedic (and over the top) performances from the whole cast.
