\n\u201cNoises Off\u201d has been called the funniest farce ever written and is about a group of actors putting on a play called \u201cNothing On.\u201d It\u2019s a typical bedroom farce, but the actors are having all sorts of difficulties memorizing the lines, handling props and dealing with backstage relationships and a dilettante director. What goes on behind the scenes is funnier, sexier and more absurd than the comedy being performed onstage. In theatrical stage directions, the term “noises off” refers to sounds that are meant to be heard from offstage.<\/p>\n
\nDrama professor Tim Soulis said that directing this hilarious comedy has been a wonderfully delightful experience. \u201cOur rehearsals at times have mirrored the confusion on stage in the play within the play,\u201d he said. \u201cThe experience becomes a hall of mirrors in which we can\u2019t tell where the play ends and rehearsal begins.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nIf you want an evening or afternoon of non-stop laughter where everything that can go wrong, does, you won\u2019t want to miss \u201cNoises Off.\u201d<\/p>\n
