NOISES OFF

by Michael Frayn

THE STATE THEATRE: January 17 - February 8

Called “the funniest farce ever written,” (Clive Barnes, The New York Post) Noises Off presents an hilarious behind-the-scenes peek at an acting troupe rehearsing and performing the farce “Nothing’s On.” Despite nerves, dropped lines and technical difficulties, they make it through final dress rehearsal to opening night. As time goes by, things deteriorate until pandemonium ensues and axe-wielding co-stars, drunken cast members and misplaced sardines take center stage during a disaster of a performance that threatens to jinx the old saying, “The show must go on.” In three acts: Act One, Act One, and Act One.
