Laughter on the 23rd Floor is a fast-paced comedy by Neil Simon that takes audiences behind the scenes of a 1950s television sitcom. Drawing inspiration from Simon's own experiences as a writer for Sid Caesar’s Your Show of Shows, the play explores the chaos and creativity involved in crafting comedy. Directed by Andrew Barnicle, this production offers a nostalgic glimpse into the golden age of television through its vibrant characters and lively interactions. The show runs from March 4 to March 22, 2026, at Laguna Playhouse.
