FARCE. A Craigslist magician who still lives in his parents’ basement accidentally makes a naughty kid disappear at a children’s birthday party. The magician has no idea where the boy is or how to make him reappear. Frantic, Claire and Allen have just one hour to find the kid before his parents arrive to pick him up from the party. Afraid they will be sued, lose their home, and have the FBI and CNN camped out on their front lawn, Claire and Allen come up with a crazy but practical solution. Winner, Audience Choice Best Play, Fusion Theatre Company, Annual Original Short Works Festival, 2014.
