Experience the wit and wisdom of George Bernard Shaw with "Misalliance," directed by Guillermo Cienfuegos, at A Noise Within. This satiric comedy of manners, set on a summer day in the early 20th century, unfolds in an English country estate where an undergarment mogul, his family, and a group of eclectic visitors engage in lively debates, resulting in eight marriage proposals and a plane crash. This production promises to be a chaotic clash of class, gender, and generations, offering audiences a humorous yet insightful look at societal norms.

Running from May 12 to June 9, 2024, "Misalliance" follows the success of Cienfuegos's 2023 production of "Much Ado About Nothing," and is anticipated to be an unusually funny and constantly surprising conversation piece. The New York Times praises it as an engaging spectacle that never fails to astonish.

Join us for special performances, including "Pay What You Choose" nights on May 15 and May 23, 2024, where tickets start as low as $5. Don't miss the Opening Night on May 18, 2024, featuring a free post-show cast party.

Glenn, an investment banker on the verge of closing the biggest deal of his life, steps into an Uber in midtown Manhattan. It all takes a sharp turn as he gets deeper into conversation with his South American driver Victoria, who turns out to be far more interesting than he may have expected.

Middle of the World

Rogue Machine Theatre

Sworn to a life solo, Beatrice and Benedict are each determined to evade Cupid’s quiver of arrows, employing against one another rapier wit to defend against what everyone else already knows—that they are hopelessly, desperately in love! Romp, romance, and potential catastrophe collide in William Shakespeare’s fast-moving and irresistibly hilarious comedy.
