Unnecessary Farce
425 Fawell Blvd Glen Ellyn
A pair of inept police officers set up a sting operation to trap an embezzling mayor meeting his female accountant...in a pair of matching hotel rooms. What could go wrong? Confusion fills the stage with doors slamming, clothes flying and bagpipes bleating...all adding up to an over-the-top tale of mix-ups. "Unnecessary Farce" is penned by Paul Slade Smith, playwright of BTE's 2024-2025 smash-hit season opener, "The Outsider," both of which are directed by Kurt Naebig. Broadway World calls "Unnecessary Farce" "the comedy we all need." "Absolutely recommended for a great night of laughter and fun," says DC Theater Arts.
