About
One of the greatest British comedies ever written, Noises Off is a hilarious and heartfelt tribute to the unpredictability of life in the theatre.
Called “the funniest farce ever written”, Noises Off follows the on and off-stage antics of a touring theatre company as they stumble their way through the fictional farce, Nothing On.
Across three acts we witness: the shambolic final rehearsals, a disastrous matinee seen entirely from backstage and their brilliantly catastrophic final performance.
We’re delighted to present the first ever in the round production of Michael Frayn’s comedy masterpiece.
"The most dexterously realized comedy ever about putting on a comedy. A spectacularly funny, peerless backstage farce. This dizzy, well-known romp is a festival of delirium." The New York Times
"Stephen Joseph Theatre artistic director Paul Robinson [is] an expert at staging farce kept the right side of chaos" The Scarborough News
