When Bad Things Happen to Good Actors

Co-written by Ian McWethy
  • Comedy
  • One-act play, 25-30 minutes
  • 10-30 actors possible, gender flexible​
A simple one-act production of The Wizard of Oz gets derailed by missed cues, forgotten lines, and a renegade sound board op who refuses to play anything but dinosaur noises. A comedy that proves, when it comes to live theatre, everything that can go wrong, will go wrong, and it will be hilarious.
