Prior to COVID-19 cases surging across in the U.K. at the end of 2020, the show had scheduled a return for November 19, 2020.
The Play That Goes Wrong spotlights an amateur drama society that puts on a murder mystery. As the title suggests, nothing in the performance goes according to plan. The Olivier-winning play, which began in London, moved to Broadway in 2017. In 2019, the show transferred to off-Broadway's New World Stages, where it was running at the time that theaters shut down. That year, the BBC premiered a new television series, The Goes Wrong Show, based on the celebrated stage comedy.
