Acme Theater

A madcap comedic farce set in the Silver Crest Manor, a once-respected nursing home besieged by all manner of chaos. While a violent thunderstorm rages outside, inside a drug dealer is on the loose, an escaped mental patient is hunted by the police, and a trio of scheming scoundrels spin a web of identity theft and deception. As patients mysteriously vanish and impostors emerge, the confusion-and hilarity escalates through mistaken identities, double-dealing, and surprise twists. Hold onto your walkers: Losing Patients blends outrageous physical comedy with unexpected plot turns right up to its surprise finish.
 Losing Patients by A. Duke and Virginia Cate Directed by Kelsey McDonough and assistant directed by Jill Zuber-Sheils&nbsp;
