This Olivier Award-winning comedy is a hilarious hybrid of Monty Python and Sherlock Holmes. Welcome to opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor, where the hapless Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society’s attempt to stage this 1920s murder mystery devolves into madcap mayhem. With an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines), the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to survive until their final curtain call. The New York Post has just one word for you: “GO!” Tickets won’t last – it’d be wrong to wait!

The Play That Goes Wrong

San Francisco Playhouse

“Lord, what fools these mortals be!”

Are you ready for some mischief? As we move through an ever-tangled world of uncertainty, Shakespeare’s fever dream of a play feels especially timely. A Midsummer Night’s Dream invites us to embrace the wonder of human existence, explore who we are becoming, and relish the fire and messiness of love in all its forms - reminding us that joy, connection, and clarity are always within reach.
