A<br />

GUT-BUSTING<br />

HIT! ”<br />

December 19 & 20 8 pm<br />

This Olivier Award-winning comedy is a hilarious hybrid of<br />

Monty Python and Sherlock Holmes. Welcome to opening night<br />

of The Murder at Haversham Manor where things are quickly<br />

going from bad to utterly disastrous. With an unconscious<br />

leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors<br />

who trip over everything (including their lines), it’s “A<br />

RIOTOUS EXPLOSION OF COMEDY!” (The Daily Beast)<br />

and “TONS OF FUN FOR ALL AGES!” (HuffPost). Ben<br />

Brantley of The New York Times calls THE PLAY<br />

THAT GOES WRONG “A GUT-BUSTING HIT,” and<br />

Cindy Adams of the New York Post has just<br />

one word for you: “GO!” Get tickets now —<br />

it would be WRONG to wait!<br />
