UNNECESSARY FARCE
By Paul Slade Smith
Directed by: Jan Alexandra Smith
Two cops. Three crooks. Eight doors. Go!
In a cheap motel room, an embezzling mayor is supposed to meet with his female accountant, while in the room next door, two undercover cops wait to catch the meeting on videotape. In this riotous farce, there’s some confusion as to who’s in which room, who’s being videotaped, who has the money, who hired a hit man and why the accountant keeps taking off her clothes.
A laugh-out-loud cocktail of misunderstandings, revelations and unexpected arrivals, Unnecessary Farce creates a crime caper where the long arm of the law will have you rolling in the aisles. If it ever figures out which direction to point, that is!
