By Michael Frayn
Called the funniest farce ever written, NOISES OFF presents a manic menagerie as a cast of itinerant actors rehearsing a flop called NOTHING'S ON. Doors slamming, on- and backstage intrigue, and an errant herring all figure in the plot of this hilarious and classically comic play.

Auditions: November 8 & 9 @ 7pmTHE PRODUCERS
Book by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan, Music and Lyrics by Mel Brooks
Outrageous, hilarious, a teeny bit risqué, off the wall, and the winner of a record 12 Tony Awards are just a few things that THE PRODUCERS is. But it is never boring and you will find yourself holding your sides with laughter as Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom sing and dance their way through the greatest show biz scam that there ever was!
