Directed by multi-award winner, Chris Weare, the play-within-a-play presents a series of comedic mishaps and misunderstandings as a cast attempts to stage a farce with a mix of acting talent, two weeks of rehearsals and all that can go wrong, going wrong…. and for some reason a plate of sardines that never knows where to be! Two award-winning actors Aiden Scott (Amadeus, A Midsummer Night’s Dream) and Natalie Robbie (Spring Awakening, Orpheus McAdoo) lead the talented young LAMTA cast in this farcical fiasco that revolves around a hapless cast and crew struggle to bring their cheesy bedroom comedy Nothing On to life.
Things spiral wildly out of control – doors slam, sardines fly, tempers flare and romantic entanglements unravel with perfect imperfection. Act One shows the final dress rehearsal, Act Two flips the set to reveal the backstage chaos during a mid-run meltdown, and Act Three sees the production finally collapse into complete comic mayhem. A love letter to the madness of live theatre, Noises Off is a fast-paced, brilliantly constructed play-within-a- play that guarantees laughter from curtain up to final bow.
With set and Lighting design by Kieran McGregor, and costumes designed by Frankie van Straten, two award-winning actors Aiden Scott (Amadeus, A Midsummer Night’s Dream) and Natalie Robbie (Spring Awakening, Orpheus McAdoo) lead the talented young cast in this farcical fiasco. Don’t miss it!
Noises Off is at MONTE from 3 – 12 OCTOBER!
