STARRING

ABSOLUTELY NO ONE YOU WOULD RECOGNIZE

(In order of appearance)

BECCA WASS as ANNIE

Becca is excited (and slightly concerned for her safety) to play Annie in "The Play That Goes Wrong." She has spent years mastering the technique of looking unimpressed, and that's coming in very handy now. When not being forcibly shoved into the spotlight, she enjoys reminding herself that stage management was supposed to be the safe job. She also likes turtles... Read Becca's other lame bio

MATT LOOP as TREVOR

Is this thing on? Okay yeah, well, where to start? Matt is thrilled (or at least contractually obligated) to play Trevor the stage hand. He has perfected the art of pressing buttons at the wrong time and sighing dramatically when things fall apart. He dedicates this performance to all the real-life Trevors out there—stay strong! Okay, that’s it, do I click this or... Read Matt's other lame bio

JORDON NAVRATIL as CHRIS BEAN

Jordon is delighted to take on the role of Chris Bean, the Director. He has spent years holding back barely-contained rage, relishing theatrical denial, and looking like he’s about to explode at any given moment. When not desperately trying to keep a production together, he enjoys deep breaths and counting to ten... Read Jordon's other lame bio

NICK PALIDWOR as JONATHAN

Nick has been acting since childhood, which means he’s spent most of his life pretending to be other people—an excellent coping mechanism for the existential crisis that is turning 40. Once the fresh-faced ingénue, he now finds himself in the strange limbo between "charming lead" and "grizzled mentor who probably dies in Act II"...

CHRISTOPHER DELLINGER as ROBERT

Christopher is absolutely honoured to play Robert—though his friends and family have expressed concern. A firm believer in the phrase “commit to the bit,” he has spent years perfecting the art of overacting and using his favourite phrase: “I meant to do that!”... When not on stage, he enjoys long walks and questioning his life choices...

TREVOR ROBERTS as DENNIS

Trevor is an actor. Technically. Wth the memory of a goldfish, and all the charisma of "just standing there," his go-to move of "nodding, while trying to remember his next line," has made him many friends in the acting community. Directors and parents alike have described Trevor as: "Available," "Not the worst choice" and "Profoundly adequate"... Read Trevor's other lame bio

TRACY LABROSSE as SANDRA

Tracy brings a level of passion to every role that some might call "a bit much"—but they just don’t get art. Her range knows no bounds. Tracy gives 200%, which is why she has been politely asked to “dial it back a bit” in more than one audition. Offstage, she remains in character at all times—because, as she often says, "There are no small moments, only unprepared audiences"... Read Tracy's other lame bio

JAMES BARCLAY as MAX

James is a true connoisseur of over-the-top reactions, audience-waving, and completely ignoring the concept of staying in character. He specializes in delivering lines with the subtlety of a fireworks display. When not soaking up the spotlight, he enjoys enthusiastic applause, jazz hands, and reminding himself that acting is about sharing--not just about him... Read James's other lame bio

CREATIVE TEAM

THE "SO-CALLED" BRAINS BEHIND THE OPERATION

DIRECTOR - TRACY LABROSSE

This is the second time Tracy has directed THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG. She swore she would never do it again after the first production went way too well and she lost a lot of street cred. However, she has been reassured absolutely nothing will go right this time around. If it does, she is quitting theatre forever and going back to her stupid job as a stupid rocket scientist... Read Tracy's other lame bio

PRODUCER - JAMES BARCLAY

Also known as "the money man." James will continue to write the cheques until they begin to bounce. At that point, you might just hear him weeping in a nearby closet or you may catch a glimpse of him sprinting toward the closest airport. After that, you may or may not be able to locate him somewhere in the deep jungles of Costa Rica... Read James's other lame bio

PRODUCER - HEATHER EVENS

Heather takes the money from James and does everything a producer is supposed to do. Unlike James, however, Heather is not keen on a life on the run, so she will not be an accomplice in anything deemed illegal or might be misconstrued as illegal. Thank you... Read Heather's other lame bio

STAGE MANAGER / PYROTECHNICIAN - ANNA MORTEN

If theatre is controlled chaos, then Anna is the one pretending to control it. With a headset and a growing collection of stress-induced eye twitches, she is the lifeblood of this production. Anna also enjoys making things go BOOM. As the fearless mastermind behind the fire, sparks and “totally safe” onstage explosions, she lives by one rule: bigger is better (unless the fire marshal is watching)... Read Anna's other lame bio

ASSISTANT STAGE MANAGER - ELLIE SCOTT

If the Stage Manager is the captain of this chaotic ship, then Ellie is the overworked first mate, fetching fire extinguishers and making sure no one falls overboard (literally and figuratively). Their job includes chasing down missing actors, untangling headset cords, and responding to every crisis with a well-practiced “I’m on it!” Ellie is fueled by adrenaline and the willpower to not scream when someone asks, “Wait, what scene are we on?” for the tenth time... Read Ellie's other lame bio

LIGHTING DESIGN - SIMON DRAKE

With the power of buttons, levers, and sheer wizardry, Simon controls the mood, the drama, and whether or not the actors can actually see where they’re going. When he's not crafting the perfect spotlight cue or subtly blinding the audience, you can find Simon muttering about gels, cursing at dimmer packs, and wondering why every director suddenly wants “just a bit more blue...” Read Simon's other lame bio

SOUND DESIGN - CHRIS STANLEY

Making doors creak, thunder roar, and ghosts wail—on purpose! (and hopefully at he right time). If you hear something weird, it’s probably me. Sound designer by trade, wizard of noise by choice!.. Read Chris's other lame bio

PROPS LEAD / CO-PRODUCER - KAREN HAMM

If it can be lost, broken, or dramatically flung across the stage, Karen is in charge of it. As the mastermind behind flying dog leashes, trick paintings, and that one oversized bottle of paint thinner, she keeps the madness running (mostly) smoothly. Karen thrives on caffeine, duct tape, and the sheer terror of an actor asking, “Wait, where’s my..."
