The hilarious "Noises Off” follows theatre troupe touring England in 2025 with the farcical period-comedy, "Nothing On." On the eve of their opening performance, everything goes wrong: the cast forgets their lines, questions the blocking choices, misplaces props, and breaks the set. Even the director predicts disaster. Despite initial chaos, the cast pulls through, but mid-tour, backstage drama takes over as romantic triangles, jealousies, and revenge disrupt both onstage and offstage activities. By closing night, the play is a total shambles, with everyone just trying to survive until the final curtain.
