Noises Off at Renton Civic Theatre

Called “the funniest farce ever written,” Noises Off presents a manic menagerie of itinerant actors rehearsing a flop called Nothing’s On. Slamming doors, on and offstage intrigue, and an errant herring all figure in the plot of this hilarious, high-energy comedy.

Mixing mockery and homage, Frayn heaps a hilarious melée of stock characters and situations into his side-splitting play-within-a-play.

Told in three escalating acts—including a full backstage act where the drama among the actors outshines the show itself—Noises Off is a love letter to live theatre at its most unpredictable. Get ready for slamming doors, flying sardines, and nonstop laughter from start to finish.
