Fever's show
The Play That Never Starts: A Theatre Show
🎭 A meta-comedy where the actors try (and fail) to get the show on the road.
Highlights
🎬 A hilariously self-aware comedy where the show derails before it even begins
😂 Perfect for fans of The Play That Goes Wrong, Noises Off, and dry British wit
🎟️ A fast-paced, fourth-wall-breaking mess — in the best possible way
🎤 Featuring a cast of loveable disasters: a nervous understudy, a missing prop master, and a director on the verge
The Show
Welcome to The Play That Never Starts, a theatrical train wreck by design. The curtain rises on what’s supposed to be a serious drama — but nothing goes to plan. From missed cues and misplaced wigs to spontaneous rewrites and stagehands caught in the spotlight, the cast is doing everything they can to keep the show from falling apart… but failing spectacularly. Think Fawlty Towers meets Waiting for Godot, with a twist of glitter and chaos. If you’ve ever worked in theatre — or just love watching things go terribly wrong — this show was written for you.
