THEATRE REVIEW: An evening of side-splitting schadenfreude in AustinPlayhouse’s The (One-Act) Play That Goes Wrong.
The Play That Goes Wrong
In the one-act work, currently being performed by Austin Playhouse, we witness the underfunded, inept, and accident-prone Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society experiencing everything that can go wrong in their opening night performance of The Murder at Haversham Manor. an ambitious one-act 1920s murder mystery.
This production offers more than just an evening of side-splitting schadenfreude. We also bear witness to some really good bad acting, which is a feat that is harder than it seems. In the high-end circus extravaganza Cirque du Soleil, there’s an act where a lovable clown attempts and spectacularly fails at performing the death-defying feats previously executed by the company’s world-class acrobats.

Number One in Formula OneToto Wolff, the team principal for Mercedes-AMG Petronas—arguably the most impressive team in F1 racing history—has led his organization to unparalleled success. Mercedes earned the Constructors’ Championship (for best overall team performance) every year from 2014 through 2021, and over that time frame it won nearly 70% of the Grand Prix races it competed in. To understand what made that possible, Harvard Business School’s Anita Elberse spent time with the team in 2021, conducting interviews and watching what went on behind the scenes before, during, and after races. She found that Wolff shapes the culture at Mercedes to a remarkable degree. Elberse’s takeaway? What you say and do as a leader has a surprisingly powerful effect on the organization you run. In this article, drawing on her observations of Wolff’s management style and practices, Elberse presents six lessons that can help any leader cultivate a winning team: (1) Set the highest standards for everyone; (2) put people front and center; (3) analyze mistakes continually—even when winning; (4) foster an open, no-blame culture; (5) trust superstars but maintain authority; and (6) relentlessly battle complacency.
