HAPPY HOLIDAYS everyone!!

To quote our favorite Christmas movie:
"It's Christmas, Theo, it's the time of miracles. So be of good cheer, and call me when Read More Plays talks about a funny play."

Well Hans (bubby) we're your white knight! This Christmas we're talking about one of the funniest plays of all time: Michael Frayn's NOISES OFF!!! That's right, in episode 4.6 the RMP team talks doors and sardines while breaking down this comedy giant. There's also a Community Voices Message from Johanna Dunphy, who shares her experience playing the role of Belinda in the show.
