In this rip-roaring, hilarious farce, a touring theatrical troupe is performing Nothing On, a silly comedy in which lovers frolic, doors slam, and double entendres are tossed with abandon. Hijinks ensue - but the show still must go on! And, oh! Here's our recent review of the production!

Rita Anderson's play about Hrosvitha, the first female playwright of the Western world, who wrote from behind the walls of a convent, under the disapproving gaze of superiors who tried to ensure that no one would ever hear of her. But Hrosvitha unleashes a secret playfulness and pens closet dramas that defy tradition to break through the constraints of the time. While based on real events, this show is a tale with a comic, magic-realism bent, directed by Karen Jambon for Different Stages.
