Two cops, three crooks and eight doors add up to one night full of laughs in Unnecessary Farce – a screwball comedy of errors in the tradition of Noises Off and Lend Me a Tenor. Filled with doors slamming, clothes flying and bagpipes piping, this over-the-top comedy centers on two inept police officers assigned to bring down a corrupt mayor in a sting operation. But everything that can go wrong does, leading to mix-ups and mayhem on both sides of the law. With its rapid-fire barrage of bawdy jokes and increasingly ridiculous situations, it would be a crime to miss this production of Unnecessary Farce at the Lakewood Center for the Arts.
