Two cops. Three crooks. Eight doors. Go! Playhouse on Park's Mainstage series continues with Unnecessary Farce, written by West Hartford native Paul Slade Smith. Opening night is Friday, November 4, at 8:00pm, with a complimentary pre-performance wine and cheese reception from 7pm-8pm.

A graduate of Conard High School and currently starring as Hook in Finding Neverland, award-winning playwright and actor Paul Slade Smith combines a contemporary plot with a classic farce. Unnecessary Farce takes place in side-by-side rooms at a cheap motel. In one, an embezzling mayor is supposed to meet with his female accountant, while in the other, two undercover cops wait to catch the meeting on videotape. But mishaps arise when there is confusion as to who's in which room.

Unnecessary Farce runs through November 20, with previews on November 2 and 3. All preview seats are only $18! This show offers a specially priced Tuesday matinee on Tuesday, November 15, at 2:00pm. All seats for this performance are only $22.50 per person, reserved seating. In addition, there is a talk back with the cast after Sunday matinees.
