The Lowdown
The premise is simple: a troupe of earnest, talentless amateurs attempts to stage a murder mystery titled The Murder at Haversham Manor. Naturally, the production is a disaster from the opening monologue. Scenery falls on heads, actors forget their lines, and the corpse has a personal vendetta against the furniture. It relies heavily on physical comedy that somehow avoids being exhausting. The timing is surgical, which is a mercy given the usual dreck we suffer through in the Theater District. If you need a break from the misery of the commute or just want to laugh at someone else’s professional catastrophe, this holds up. It is chaos, but the kind that actually works.

Our verdict
This could be enjoyable for some, but I go to Broadway for talented singing and acting and this was more slap stick comedy. Not my thing, but let me know if you liked it.
