Old Rochester Regional High School (ORRHS) is currently a latex-free building. Due to issues with latex elastics, audience members are asked to refrain from bringing flower bouquets into the building.”
“Noises Off” is a theatrical farce by English playwright Michael Frayn. First published in 1982, the play is a behind-the-scenes look at a chaotic stage production populated with frenetic and unstable actors, a volatile director, and an overworked and overly emotional stage crew. Interspersed throughout the typical narrative structure of the piece are scenes from the play-within-a-play the group is performing: a tacky comedy called “Nothing On.”
This play is appropriate for all ages, but may be more enjoyable for ages 11 and older.
