Noises Off
By Michael Frayn
Directed By Judith Allen

Heralded by the New York Post as the funniest farce ever written, Tony Award winner Michael Frayn’s Noises Off is not one play but two -- simultaneously a traditional sex farce, Nothing On, and the backstage shenanigans that develop during Nothing On’s final rehearsal and tour. The two begin to interlock as the characters make their exits from Nothing On only to find themselves making entrances into the even worse nightmare going on backstage. In the end, at the disastrous final performance, the two coalesce into a single collective nervous breakdown.

"Bumper car brilliance ..." -New York Daily News

“Spectacularly funny … a peerless backstage comedy.” –New York Times

“Ingenious ... Madcap ...” -Wall Street Journal

“A triumph … An essential hysterical fix … Masterly.” -New York Observer

“A comic masterpiece.” -Daily Telegraph

“Blissful fun.” -The New Yorker

(Noises Off contains some adult language and subject matter.)
