See the return of Michael Frayn’s classic British comedy at the Theatre Royal Haymarket. Noises Off tickets are available on London Theatre now.
This side-splitting play is a West End pleaser. From the 1982 premiere at Lyric Hammersmith to its further iterations, audiences of all generations continue to laugh at the timeless sketches in the “play-within-a-play.” In 2019, Noises Off returned to its off-West End home with beloved comic actor Meera Syal as Dotty Otley.
Fast forward to 2023, Noises Off celebrates its fortieth anniversary with a production at the Phoenix Theatre, followed by a second limited West End engagement at the Theatre Royal Haymarket. Felicity Kendal, Jonathan Coy, and Alexander Hanson will all reprise their roles.
Noises Off inspired future comedy classics: The Play That Goes Wrong takes influence from the 1980s show; they both follow a hapless group who struggle through all the odds to put on a show. 2023 marks a great moment for British entertainment, with both shows playing at the same time. So get ready to belly laugh until you ache.
Noises Off follows the onstage and offstage antics of a touring theatre company as they act out a fictional farce — Nothing On. In each of the three acts, audiences see the company at a different part of the show: the final rehearsals, backstage during the opening night in Weston-Super-Mare, and the last matinee in Ashton-Under-Lyme. As the cast and crew get closer during the tour, their relationships are tested to breaking point. Can the show go on?
