Noises Off has been a favorite from the moment it opened in 1982. Now enough time has gone by that we can safely consider it a comedic classic. The innovative way it allows audiences to see the comedy happening onstage as well as backstage makes it double the fun, especially for audiences who love theatre. And who better to do a show about a company putting on a play than Alley Theatre’s Resident Acting Company, who has decades of experiences and stories making theatre together.
Speaking of the Resident Acting Company, I’m delighted to welcome Michelle Elaine (Clue, Dead Man’s Cell Phone, Sweat, A Christmas Carol) into the company! Michelle Elaine comes to us fresh off the national tour of Clue, where she has been playing Miss Scarlet for seven months, a role she first played at the Alley for our Summer Chills in 2022. While we’ve known and loved Michelle for years, it is wonderful now to have her as a part of the company
