When you go to see "The One Act Play That Goes Wrong" - AND YOU MUST!!! – your funny bone will experience MFS - Multiple Fracture Syndrome!!!

   The insanity of the last several years will roll off of you like water off of a duck’s butt!!!

     Director Steve Wilson is a genius! Seldom has this critic laughed so hard for so long at so many gags, ploys and pratfalls!

     You will be gasping for air thanks to Director Wilson’s assemblage of this cast of clowns, as well as his choice of techies for the show.

     The brilliantly ordered chaos that surrounds Charles Haversham’s demise is without equal in the annals of Denver theatre. Never has a murder been so hideously hilarious. 

     Andrew Bates’ scenic design is a character all unto itself, allowing for myriad disasters of the spectacularly theatrical variety.

     Desperately seeking to put on this play, Denver favorite, Andrew Uhlenhopp(Chris/Inspector Carter) presents the funniest curtain speech in recorded history.

    Leslie O’Carroll is at the top of her game – and that is Way High Up, indeed! - as a hysterically inept stage manager. 

     Rachel Graham (Sandra/Florence) is as deliriously funny as she is deliciously sexy. 

     And that goes for Johanna Jaquith (Denise/Miss Polly) as well. It’s a treat to have Ms. Jaquith back on the boards again. One hopes to see her gracing the stage again soon.     

     Luke Terry (Robert/Thomas) has never been more on point as a comic!! 

     Brandon Billings plays Trevor, the cool ‘tech guy’ who just happens to be an adoring fan of the Violent Femmes. 

 Evan Marquez(Max/Cecil) and  Scotty Shaffer(Jonathan/Charles) were also superb. 

     In a nutshell, the whole cast will have you laughing like hyenas.

     And when you’re picking yourself up after rolling in the aisles, one can’t forget to appreciate the geniuses in the sound(Rick Reid) and light booth(Kevin Taylor). Susan Rahmsdorff-Terry’s costumes are knock-outs!

 

I would say again that the show is deliriously funny but that is to understate the obvious.

 

I have said WAY too much already. Just run to get tickets and ENJOY THE HECK OUT OF THIS PLAY!!!
