Local Talent in Spotlight: Theatre Santa Fe Stages Comedy 'Noises Off!' this April

Theatre Santa Fe will perform the Tony-nominated comedy, 'Noises Off!' by Michael Frayn, on April 19-20 and April 26-27, 2024. The shows will be held at the Jackson N. Sasser Fine Arts Hall at Santa Fe College's Northwest Campus. Tickets cost $15 for adults and $9 for seniors, students, military service members, and children under 12. College ID holders can attend for free.

'Noises Off!' is a comedy about a group of actors struggling to open a play called 'Nothing On.' The audience will see the challenges faced by the actors and the play. The term 'noises off' refers to offstage sounds. The play is directed by SF Theatre Professor Russell Schultz, who commends the cast's performance.

Students from SF's Theatre and Entertainment Technology program are assisting with stage management, directorial tasks, costuming, and set construction. The set is designed to show both onstage and backstage events in the play 'Nothing On.'

'Noises Off!' debuted at the Lyric Theatre in London in 1982. It has been performed worldwide, including on Broadway and at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre in Australia. The 2001 Broadway production was nominated for a Tony and Drama Desk Award for Best Revival of a Play.

The Santa Fe College Fine Arts and Entertainment Technology Department is organizing the performance of 'Noises Off!'. For more information, contact Russell Schultz or the SF Box Office.
