About Noises Off

Called “the funniest farce ever written,” Noises Off presents a manic menagerie of itinerant actors rehearsing a flop called Nothing’s On. Slamming doors, on and offstage intrigue, and an errant herring all figure in the plot of this hilarious, high-energy comedy. Mixing mockery and homage, Frayn heaps a hilarious melée of stock characters and situations into his side-splitting play-within-a-play.

SELAH THEATRE PROJECT

Selah Theatre Project, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization​, is a socially conscious, issue-driven theatre company rooted in the belief that the stage is not merely a place of entertainment rather a place of reckoning, healing, and transformation. Founded and led by Artistic Director BleuJay Do'zia, Selah Theatre has spent fifteen seasons asking its community the questions that matter most: Who are we? Whose stories have we forgotten? What do we owe each other?

Based in Winchester, Virginia, Selah Theatre Project creates and produces work that lives at the intersection of art and advocacy. The company champions original new works alongside carefully selected licensed productions, always guided by the question of what a piece demands of its audience and what it gives back to its community. Selah Theatre's original works — including Ruth's Tea Room, When a Trumpet Cries, and the forthcoming The Colored Patriot — draw from history, memory, identity, and the lived experiences of people whose stories are too often absent from mainstream stages.
