You can hook things up so as to recreate incoming teletype messages on stage by placing a TDD machine off stage and sending a TDD message to the Teletype machine, which will make plenty of noise on cue, and may become objectionable. If you use real POTS phone lines, you won't have to build anything.

I don't know if teletype machine's come in different flavors, but one that you would have found in news room in the 1960's till they became obsolete.
