Synopsis
Charlie Plumb, no longer young enough for the Private Eye biz takes on one last case. A lot of fourth wall breaking, as he explains his situation to the audience. One actress misses her entrance which begins a disintegration of the production. A noir play that fals apart completely. A comedy of errors.
