The funniest play ever written. Period. Grown men weep with laughter. Ladies have to be carried out of the theatre. Diabolically constructed, relentlessly clever, and mercilessly hilarious, ­Noises Off is the ultimate backstage farce. Depicting the onstage and backstage antics of a fifth-rate acting troup, it's a sidesplitting symphony of "Seven slamming doors, one breaking window, 10 trips up and down stairs, 17 false entrances, 46 miscues, 22 double entendres, six regular entendres and a million laughs!".

"I'm an enormously talented man, and it's no use pretending I'm not!" Thus spake Noël Coward.
