Peter Pan Goes Wrong
By Henry Lewis, Henry Shields & Jonathan Sayer
The Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society is back, and this time they’re taking on Peter Pan. It’s their most ambitious production yet, complete with flying rigs, sword fights, and a very real crocodile problem. What could possibly go wrong? As technical mishaps pile up and tempers flare, the cast battles to keep the show on track while everything around them spectacularly falls apart. Lines are forgotten, scenery refuses to cooperate, and rivalries spill onto the stage in real time. From the creators of The Play That Goes Wrong, this riotous comedy delivers nonstop mayhem, perfectly timed chaos, and the kind of theatrical disaster you have to see to believe.
