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 Director Brayden Fanti’s debut show at ORRHS and the sixth show for Assistant Director Sarah Whinnem. This is the first year they’ve worked together with the ORRHS Drama Club.
“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.
