Noises OFF is coming to Nashoba Regional High School!

Transcription

1 Noises OFF is coming to Nashoba Regional High School! Michael Frayn's Noises Off takes a fond look at the follies of theatre folk, whose susceptibility to out-ofcontrol egos, memory loss, and passionate affairs turn every performance into a high-risk adventure. This play-within-a-play captures a touring theatre troupe s production of Nothing On in three stages: dress rehearsal, the opening performance, and a performance towards the end of a debilitating run. Frayne gives us a window into the inner workings of theatre behind the scenes, progressing from flubbed lines and missed cues in the dress rehearsal to mounting friction between cast members in the final performance. Brimming with slapstick comedy, Noises Off is a delightful backstage farce, complete with slamming doors, falling trousers, and and of course flying sardines! Performances will take place November 17th and 18th at 7:30 pm and November 19th at 2:00 pm NRHS Auditorium, 12 Green Road, Bolton To order tickets in advance, please visit
