Mmm, beer. Whichever way you like it - off the tap, out of the bottle or in a shameless red plastic party cup - there's no denying, if you love beer, there's nothing better than a tall, cold one.

Riverwalk Theatre's "Noises Off" is a side-splitting look into the life and drama of the thespian world. The success is due to a brilliantly written script, a well-rehearsed cast and excellent direction.

In each act, the offstage drama takes a larger toll on the performance of "Nothing On," as couples fight and jealousy takes hold. Each actor is fully immersed in their character or characters.

John Constantine (Keanu Reeves) is a cigarette-smoking exorcist who is dying of lung cancer.

We all wonder what actually goes on backstage at a show. Whether the actors are nervously pacing the ground before going on stage, or busy flirting or bickering with each other, there's always something going on the audience doesn't see.
