Noises Off It's chaos backstage at The Chemainus Theatre Festival with Michael Frayn's clever masterpiece, Noises Off. Clearly, things are not going well, as actors and crew trip over a tangle of love lines, missed cues, and lost hope. From April 27 to June 2, audiences can find out just how bad things get in the "funniest farce ever written". Ages 13+ due to coarse language. www.chemainustheatre.ca |
