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 offstage intrigue, and an errant
herring all figure in the plot of this hilarious and classically comic
play. "The play opens with a touring company dress-rehearsing Nothing
On, a conventional farce. Mixing mockery and homage, Frayn heaps into
this play-within-a-play a hilarious mel�e of stock characters and
situations.
