Noises Off
March 17 - April 2, 2023
By Michael Frayn
​
Directed by Skylight Music Theatre Artistic Director Michael Unger
​
Skylight presents one of the most hilarious plays ever written – and adds music! This hit, side-splitting backstage farce will have live accompaniment by a singer and band playing songs by the cocktail lounge-inspired, 1950s groove of Combustible Edison. Sparkling tunes and showbiz shenanigans create a first-of-its-kind production on Skylight’s stage.
