This side-splitting 2012 play, which HuffPost called "the funniest play Broadway has ever seen," promises to deliver an evening of non-stop laughter for audiences of all ages. The play will run on CVLT's main stage at 40 River Street from June 2-18, with curtain times at 7:30pm Fridays and Saturdays, and 2:00pm on Sundays, June 11 and 18. "The Play That Goes Wrong" follows the fictional Cornley Drama Society as they attempt to stage a murder mystery. However, everything that can go wrong on their opening night does so in spectacular fashion. The result is a cascade of hilarious mishaps and calamities, from collapsing sets to forgotten lines and slapstick mayhem. This play-within-a-play will have audiences in stitches from start to finish. "We are thrilled to bring 'The Play That Goes Wrong' to the Chagrin Valley Little Theatre stage," says CVLT veteran Michael J. Rogan, director of the production. "This is a show that truly celebrates the unpredictability of live theatre and the art of physical comedy." The production also features costumes by Jacklyn Kruyne and scenery ingeniously designed by Tom West. Helen Rizi serves as producer. Chagrin Valley Little Theatre has assembled a talented cast and crew to bring this madcap comedy to life. The cast features actors Christopher Bizub, Kevin Derrick, Brandon Ferris, Miron Gusso, Julian Kruyne, Bekah Neubecker, Greg Smith, and Laura Telepak. They are joined by Victor Bernardo, David Bruney, Kaitlyn Poschner, Sarah Dellinger, and John Telepak.
