The Play That Goes Wrong: theatre night on Granville Island

Theatre outing - buy your own ticket, optional drink after.

A play about a play falling apart is usually either unbearable or exactly what live theatre is for.
The Arts Club is putting on The Play That Goes Wrong, a farce about an amateur drama society trying to stage a murder mystery while the set, props, timing, bodies, and basic dignity all start betraying them.
This is not a heavy discussion night. It is a night for staged chaos, physical comedy, collapsing confidence, and the specific pleasure of watching a room laugh at disaster on purpose.
The plan
We are going to the Thursday, July 2, 2026 performance at 7:30 PM at the Lindsay Family Stage at Granville Island.
Book your own ticket for that performance. We can coordinate in the comments if people want to sit near each other, but do not wait too long if seats start moving.
Optional drink or snack after on Granville Island if people are in the mood.

Please make sure you select Thursday, July 2, 2026 at 7:30 PM.
The vibe
Low-pressure theatre night. Come if you like comedy, stagecraft, murder mystery nonsense, British farce energy, or watching a fictional production fight for its life in front of you.
We will not do a formal discussion, but I am absolutely expecting strong lobby opinions about which disaster landed best.

Cap note
Cap 12 + waitlist. Big enough to feel like a night out, small enough to coordinate tickets.
Small note
Everyone buys their own ticket. Meetup RSVP does not reserve a theatre seat. End time is approximate.
