Noises Off
By Michael Frayn
Directed by Paul Mullins
Noises Off is one of the funniest plays ever written... or, more accurately, ever staged, since it is not just the words but the physical actions that are hilarious. It is classic farce.
"Noises Off (British for off-stage commotion that can be heard by the audience), by Michael Frayn pulls back the curtain on a third-rate troupe of actors performing the sex-farce Nothing On, where backstage romance, slamming doors, missing actors and a plate of sardines lead to hilarious chaos."
