Make 'Em Laugh by Gloucester High School Theatre Program in Gloucester, Massachusetts

What To Know About This Production

What do you get when you mix an homage to Noises Off, Pleasantville, and classic episodes of Friends, Seinfeld, and The Golden Girls? You get MAKE ‘EM LAUGH! by Emmy nominee Jason Odell Williams. This fresh comedy explores what it means to find one's passion (all while figuring out how to escape being stuck inside the TV).


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 pipe-dream, a high school student gets trapped in an alternate sitcom multiverse and can’t find their way out. After some frustrating and hilarious encounters with the casts of shows that look a LOT like Friends, Seinfeld, The Golden Girls, Taxi, and The Honeymooners, and getting some sage advice from legendary producer and godfather of sitcoms Norman Lear, they discover their true passion: writing comedy.
