Just got back from another excellent production at San Francisco Playhouse. Today it was "Noises Off."  Included in the program was one for "Nothing On," the play-within-a-play. It's hilarious. 

I'm curious, is the "Nothing On" program material part of the licensed package or did the local company likely compose it?

Would like the add my praise to the San Francisco Noises Off. It's a remarkable production, and in my opinion superior to the recent Broadway revival.

I directed a high school production of NOISES OFF and we included the fake NOTHING' S ON bios and that started a tradition of the castcwriting their own daffy bios for each show. Some of them were quite funny. One that stands out was "An up and coming recording star, Janet's newest single, 'I Made A Fool Of Myself Over George Stephanopulous" can currently be heard on the airwaves across the country."
