A Letter from the Director of “The Play that Goes Wrong”

Thanks so much for coming out and supporting live theatre. Without you, we’d… well, we’d probably still be doing this for an empty room, but that’s not nearly as fun for anyone. Your presence makes the chaos worthwhile.

The Play That Goes Wrong is a unique kind of beast—a show where everything falls apart on purpose, but still needs to be razor-sharp to land just right. It’s a heck of a challenge, and I couldn’t be prouder of the incredible cast and crew who dove in headfirst, embraced the madness, and made this disaster of a play a smashing success.

A huge shoutout to David Jolly and his team for building a set that’s practically a character of its own. You’ll see what I mean soon enough. It’s an architectural marvel… that occasionally tries to eat people.

This is the third show I’ve had the pleasure of directing, and every time I’m reminded just how much talent, energy, and heart goes into making local theatre happen. Please keep coming out, keep cheering us on, and keep supporting the arts in any way you can.

While we’re on that note—if you’re looking for more theatre-adjacent goodness in the area, check out the 2nd Annual Green Bay Fringe Festival coming this July www.gbfringe.com

And while we’re on the topic of supporting the arts, come join my secret club.

Enjoy the show (and try not to get too close to the set—it has a mind of its own).
