Black Hills Community Theater

Noises Off
May 4, 10, 11, 17, 18 at 7:30 PM

May 5, 12, 19 at 2:00 PM
Called “the funniest farce ever written,” Noises Off presents a madcap look at a theater troupe that includes erratic actors, an arrogant director and well-meaning stagehands, attempting to put together a show called Nothing’s On. Doors slamming, intrigue on and off the stage, and a few misplaced sardines all figure into the plot of this hilarious and classically comic play.
