PENTACLE THEATRE
DIRECTOR’S NOTES
T
his show has a special place in my heart. I was fortunate to be
a member of the cast when Pentacle Theatre last performed
it in 2001. I had auditioned for the role of Belinda, and was
thrilled—and terrified!—to be cast as Brooke instead. Of all of my
theatrical experiences, both at Pentacle and elsewhere, this show is
the one that stands out as the one that was the most fun to be a part
of. Every single night was a joy to be onstage, and I am so privileged
to be able to direct it this time around.
Noises Off was created when playwright Michael Frayn watched a
Susan Schoaps
performance of his play, The Two of Us, from backstage. He said, “It
was funnier from behind than in front, and I thought that one day I must write a farce from
behind.” Since its premiere in 1982, it has become a staple in theaters around the world. Often
called the funniest play ever written, this show has it all. Doors, bags, boxes and sardines
clash with temperamental directors, actors and stage crew.
The challenges of this show are several. It is difficult to rehearse a show with eight doors
and two levels in a rehearsal space with one level and no doors. Act II is mostly pantomime,
which requires precise choreography of blocking and timing on the part of the actors. Each
of the three acts (which we are performing as two acts) has very similar, but not quite the
same, dialog. You can imagine the difficulty
in remembering which of three slightly difPentacle Theatre’s
ferent versions of the same line should be said

Outside of Pentacle, Jeff has appeared in

cook fish, release fish on plate”), lives in
Salem, and works for the Oregon Department of Justice. Jeff dedicates this show to
“the Abigail to my John Adams. Darla, in
this incarnation and the next and beyond,
I thank you for being my Dearest Friend.
Love. Meow.”

PENTACLE THEATRE
PRESIDENT’S CORNER
I
am honored to be serving Pentacle Theatre as board president in 2017. I have been so fortunate to volunteer here for
almost 13 years. Pentacle has enriched my life in so many
ways during this time. Serving as this organization’s president
is a daunting position, but I know that I will be supported by a
fantastic board and our exceptional staff. I hope to continue the
hard work of our former board President, Nancy Moen.
In advance I want to acknowledge the people that have given
us so much!
Heather Dunkin Toller
1. Our patrons: Your passion for theater and your support for
this community inspires me daily. And to our new patrons, welcome! I hope you
enjoy our theater in the woods and see the magic often found here.
2. Our donors and sponsors: I am continually amazed by the outpouring of love from
our donors and sponsors. Your generosity continues to touch our hearts.
3. Our volunteers: You are the heartbeat of this organization. Without you Pentacle
Theatre simply wouldn’t exist. Thank you for all you do!
And many of you reading this fall into two or three of the above categories. Thank
you, thank you, thank you!
I have witnessed many transitions since I started volunteering here and 2017 promises
to bring an exciting season and some significant organizational changes. But together,
I know that we can all accomplish many great things for the theater in the year to come.

Michael Collins, Laura Davis, Holly Giesbrecht, Rebecca Herman, Ron Herman,
Fran Lattin, Hailey Nelson, Alycia Olivar, Toby Rhine, and Isabella Steele.
