To the Cast and Crew of Noises Off,
I just wanted to take a moment and congratulate you all on a wonderful
production. We were able to attend the opening night performance and can not
tell you how much we loved the entire show. The comedy came in many forms
and was constant throughout all three acts. I honestly can not even imagine
how exhausted you all must be after each performance! In the three years
that Teatro delle Muse has been the resident company of the ArtCentre
Theatre I can't remember a production that generated so many belly laughs
from the audience. I sat in the back row (as is a habit of mine, I enjoy
watching the audience, reviewers and tech crew as much as I do the show) and
never saw a moment of restlessness, nor watch checks or snoring from
audience members. That is amazing! Be very proud of the work you have done.
I am proud to know this show is a part of our theatre. Jamey, I can't wait
to see your next production with TDM, wait productions. there's Grease,
Rocky Horror Picture Show, A Christmas Show and of course Evening Star
Rising. We are so glad to have you as a part of our company and we hope that
you bring all the talent from Noises Off with you to other shows!

 True? 

 Believe not because some old manuscripts are produced, believe not because it is your national belief, believe not because you have been made to believe from your childhood, but reason truth out, and after you have analyzed it, then if you find it will do good to one and all, believe it, live up to it, and help others live up to it.
