LEAGUES BELOW MONTY PYTHON; HIGH SCHOOL HUMOR AT BEST

12/10/19 At Kravis, West Palm Beach FL. Python's situational and physical humor is light years ahead of this play. TPTGW has slapstick and shtick that some high school drama group decided was funny. Audience laughed nervously hoping that the play would get better; it Never did so they stopped laughing. Actors shouted their lines; trying to "sell" it. The audience began to leave halfway through the first act; many more left at intermission and couldn't leave fast enough. At least one third of the theater left because this play was so bad. This play should have been staged in one of Kravis' smaller non- subscription secondary theaters. It should NOT have been part of the series which many bought in order to get the Hamilton tickets included in this season. We have had Kravis season tickets for four years. This play has me questioning whether I should switch to Broward, which has all of the same shows- except this one. This was a waste of precious time and money. Don't waste yours

A SCATHING HAIKU

sets, props, cast fall down as funny as armpit farts we left halfway through

SAME THING OVER AND OVER

I couldn't believe this was so bad. This is just pure slapstick without any originality. I think little kids probably would enjoy this more. Adults in the audience were actually laughing, which really surprised me because it was the same joke Over and over again. I was almost insulted at how basic this was.

BAD TO THE BONE!

Went to see the play with my spouse as an anniversary "gift".. so we thought! The show had bad comedy from start to finish, we wanted to leave at intermission but tortured ourselves to the end since the tickets were pricey. We were shocked at people laughing and giving a standing ovation, felt bad for the actors but having props and overly played "funny" moments is NOT comedy. Don't waste your money or time.

What we thought

HILARIOUS British slapstick

Brilliantly BAD! And if London Bridge ever does fall down, the Mischief Theatre Company would be my first suspect!

The name of the producing theatre company says it all, Mischief Theatre. With nothing short of a miracle, The Murder at Haversham Manor his heading out on tour! Thankfully though it is merely a guise for the brilliant The Play That Goes Wrong!
