Called the funniest farce ever written, Noises Off is a play within a play. It is about an ambitious director and his troupe of mediocre actors. The cast and crew are putting together and rehearsing a flop called “Nothing’s On” - a single-set farce in which lovers frolic, doors slam, clothes are tossed away, and embarrassing hi-jinks ensue.
