From Mischief, Broadway masters of comedy, comes the smash hit farce. Welcome to opening night of the Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a show—an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines). Nevertheless, the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences! Part Monty Python, part Sherlock Holmes, this Olivier Award–winning comedy is a global phenomenon that’s guaranteed to leave you aching with laughter!
The production is directed by Tyler Smith and has a cast that includes Jeremy Wilkes as Chris Bean/Inspector Carter, Seb Ward as Max Bennett/Cecil Haversham, Jackson Bevard as Robert Grove/Thomas Colleymoore, Evan Enderle as Dennis Tyde/Perkins, Derek Hover as Jonathan Harris/Charles Haversham, Lizzie Jones as Sandra Wilkinson/Florence Colleymoore, Olivia Weldon as Annie Twilloil, and Nico Krasin as Trevor Watson. They are joined by an ensemble made up of members of the Cornley University Drama Society Tech Crew.
