Unnecessary Farce
By Paul Slade Smith
Directed by Vaughn Irving

Mayor Meekly might be guilty of embezzling money from his community and it’s up to the bumbling local police and an easily excitable accountant to catch him in the act. They set up a sting operation in a low-budget motel with adjoining rooms in hopes of uncovering the truth. However, truths are a little more complicated, and much more hilarious than expected. Put together mistaken identities, misinterpreted surveillance videos and a Scottish hit man, and you have a riotous and delightful farce complete with too many doors, a healthy amount of innuendo and plenty of laughs from start to end.

Featuring Kevin Atkinson, Pat Beck, Melissa Christopher, Silas Harris, Charlotte Jusinski, David McConnell, and Matthew O’Kelly.
