Curio Theatre Company finishes its 10th Anniversary Season with Michael
Frayn’s hilarious theatre satire, *Noises Off*.
Called "the funniest farce ever written" by *The New York Post*, *Noises
Off, *Michael Frayn's uproarious play within a play follows the on-and
off-stage antics of the members of a mediocre touring company as they
blunder from an ominously bad dress rehearsal to a spectacularly disastrous
performance.
This 1982 play came about in the 70s when Frayn was watching from the wings
a performance of *The Two of Us*, a farce that he had written for Lynn
Redgrave. He said, "It was funnier from behind than in front, and I thought
that one day I must write a farce from behind." The prototype, a
short-lived one-act play called *Exits*, was written and performed in 1977.
At the request of his associate, Michael Codron, Frayn expanded this into
what would become *Noises Off*. It takes its title from the theatrical
stage direction indicating sounds coming from offstage.
*Curio is giving away a chance to win two season passes to next season to
anyone who attends opening night dressed 80s style! *There will be a
contest!!!
