Unnecessary Farce
Event published by Twin City Players
Twin City Players announces the 4th production of its 2024-2025 92nd Mainstage Season, the hilariously entertaining Unnecessary Farce by Paul Slade Smith, the award-winning playwright who also gave us The Outsider. Opening night features complimentary wine from 12 Corners Vineyards.
Two cops, three crooks, eight doors! Unnecessary Farce is an award-winning stage comedy that combines classic farce elements with a contemporary plot. In an economy motel room, an embezzling mayor is supposed to meet with his female accountant. In the room next door, two undercover cops are supposed to catch the meeting on videotape. But there's some confusion as to who's in which room, who's watching the video, who's taken the money, who's hired a hitman, and why the accountant keeps taking off her clothes. A fast-paced, door-slamming, handcuff-wearing, bagpipe-playing comedy!
