Sardine Shenanigans: A Hilarious Opening Night of Two River Theater's 'Noises Off'

Originally posed October 2019

Last night was the opening of Noise's Off at Two River and I had a ton of laughs putting together this post show reception. To catch a full view of the evening's festivities, visit our friends at Red Bank Pulse or watch their video below!

If you've seen Noises Off, then you may remember they mention sardines. A lot. So I took the bait and crafted these over-sized sardine tins.

Click here for a backstage tour on how I put together these fishy centerpieces. After all - if you give a man a fish, he'll eat for the day. If you teach a man to fish, he'll eat for a lifetime. And who isn't interested in a lifetime supply of sardines?

In tonight's performance, the role of Sardines will be played by Swedish Fish. 

We don't usually have favors at opening night, but we don't usually get to throw a sardine themed party. Guests received a specialty can of Noises's Off Sardines, Ready to Serve!

Noises Off will be playing though Feb 3 at Two River Theater in Red Bank, NJ. For more information about the show, visit the TRT website.
