What is The play That goes Wrong about?

The comedy show thoroughly entertains the spectators when the Cornley Polytechnic Drama society aims to put on their annual show and amidst rehearsals for “Murder at Haversham Manor”, a 1920s murder mystery. The play within the play turns out to be a herculean task and a battle against all odds.
