July 6 – August 3, 2025 (Opening night: Friday, July 11) Donald and Darlene Shiley Stage Old Globe Theatre Conrad Prebys Theatre Center By Michael Frayn Directed by Gordon Greenberg "Noises Off" is a brilliant and uproarious backstage comedy that pulls back the curtain on a theatre company struggling to keep its production from falling apart. Forgotten lines, misplaced props, and romantic entanglements lead to total chaos with doors slamming and sardines flying, in a whirlwind of slapstick hilarity. As the actors’ onstage and offstage worlds collide, the result is, as The New York Times calls it, “a raucously delightful comedy” and “altogether hilarious.” Vicki and Carl Zeiger Insights Seminar: Tuesday, July 8 at 6:00 p.m. Post Show Forums: Tuesday, July 15; Tuesday, July 22; Wednesday, July 23; Wednesday, July 30 (evening performance) LGBTQIA+ Theatre Night: Friday, July 18 at 7:00 p.m. Open-Caption Performance: Saturday, July 26 at 2:00 p.m. Total running time: Two hours and 15 minutes (three acts with one intermission). This production contains mild profanity, sexual innuendo, and physical comedy including characters in their underwear. Supported by Lead Production Sponsors George C. Guerra, HM Electronics, Inc., and Vicki and Carl Zeiger, and Production Sponsors Pamela J. Wagner and Hans Tegebo.
