Acme Theater presents Unnecessary Farce by Paul Slade Smith

In a run-down motel, a high-stakes sting operation is about to go hilariously off the rails. In Room A, an embezzling Mayor meets his accountant. In Room B, two rookie cops wait to catch it all on tape. But when the rooms get swapped, the money disappears, and a Scottish hitman enters the fray, the result is a breathless whirlwind of mistaken identities and plummeting pants. It's not just a crime—it's an unnecessary farce!
