The Folkestone-Hythe Operatic and Dramatic Society presented Noises Off by Michael Frayn on 14-16 May 2026 at The Tower Theatre, Folkestone. An amateur production by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.

Foreword

There are few who will deby that Theatre is funny. It's full of funny people with funny ideas that do funny things. That bloke whose birthday it is today as I write this knew a thing or two when he said all the world's a stage.

Theatre is also serious. It's full of serious people with serious ideas that do serious things.

The inevitable comedy that ensues when these two sets of people meet up and put on a play is almost beyond parody. Almost.

So, with all that in mind, welcome to FHODS' production of Noises Off, wherein this seriously funny cast have worked tirelessly to do waht this frankly perculiar but determined director told them to do, and have produced something seriously good.

Enjoy the show!

Aaron Birks Director

Quick Director's PS: I've made this production immersive, so whilst it has two intervals of twenty minutes each, performing onstage and throughout the theatre will take place during the intervals and the set changes will happen for your entertainment too. I'd therefore recommend you pre-order drinks at the bar for both intervals in advance.

  • Clackett's Agony
  • The Sex Maniac
  • Selsdon's Old and Peculiar
