West Delaware is proud and privileged to present the world premier of Make Em Laugh written by Jason Odell Williams. It has been an amazing experience in working with this writer and our production on April 14 will be the first in the nation and you will be its first audience.

Make Em Laugh is a comedy, best described as:

NOISES OFF meets the movie PLEASANTVILLE meets an episode of FRIENDS in this theatrical love letter to sit- coms (classic and modern). After declaring that college would be a waste of time and money, and that their one- time dream to be a comedy writer is an impractical pipedream, a high school student gets trapped in a series of sitcoms (Friends, Seinfeld, Will & Grace, New Girl, The Golden Girls, That 70’s Show) and can’t find their way out. After some frustrating and hilarious encounters, including some sage advice from Norman Lear, our hero student discovers they DO want to go to college – to become a sit- com writer! An uproarious comedy about finding your purpose and discovering that laughter truly is the best medicine.
