Michael Caine leads an all-star ensemble cast in this hilariously sexy comedy that is an outrageously funny look at the love, lies and deceit that take place behind the scenes as a group of ridiculously inept stage actors rehearse a sex farce. Just when they finally get their performances right, things start to go wrong, as petty jealousies and rocky romances lead to a hysterically disastrous Broadway performance you'll never forget. Critically acclaimed, Noises Off proves there's no business like show business for great comedy.
