    Michael Frayn’s hilarious farce, Noises Off, called “the funniest farce ever written” by the New York Post, provides audiences a glimpse into the crazy goings on backstage as a traveling troupe of players rehearses and tours a silly British sex farce where everything goes terribly wrong. This production, complete with false entrances, flubbed lines, double entendres, and a stage full of doors and sardines, will keep audiences in stitches for the duration of the play. Audiences can also expect to see a glorious multi-level set on a 28 foot turntable.

    Peter Reynolds, Artistic Director of Mauckingbird Theatre Company and Head of Musical Theater for the Department of Theater at Temple University, returns to direct Noises Off after directing last season’s hit, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The production will feature a young, energetic cast of nine Drexel students and a production team that includes Barrymore Award winners Rosemarie McKelvey (Costume Designer), Shelly Hicklin (Lighting Designer) and Barrymore Nominee Dirk Durossette (Set Designer).
