“The President, Room Service, Lend Me a Tenor and Noises Off are perhaps the funniest plays of all time.” - Bennington Banner. A 1938 film version starred the Marx Brothers, and co-starred Lucille Ball, Ann Miller, Alexander Asro, and Frank Albertson.

The plot centers around a nimble-witted producer, living on credit in a Broadway hotel, and desperately in need of a big hit. By chance and good luck, he finds a playwright with a good play and a backer with $15,000. In the course of a few short days, he must deal with an odd assortment of actors, the hotel manager, the playwright and the angel with the money.

The cast features Pat Brady (as Senator Blake), Richard Cross (as Dr. Glass), Spencer Hopkins (the Messenger), Amy Lane (Marlowe), Robin MacDuffie (Englund), Marty O’Connor (Gribble), Richard Roe (Binion), Michael Schaefer (Sasha), John Schnurr (Davis), Dennis Skiba (Jenkins), John Sutliff (Wagner), Michael Silvia (Hogarth), Jennifer Van Iderstyne (Manney), and Patrick White (Miller).

Tickets, $17. Order in person at, or charge by phone through, Proctors box office 346-6204. Order on-line at www.civicplayers.org More info call 382-2081.
