Mainers tend to take care of their own business, much to the chagrin of Gerard, the only cop on the island. When he finds evidence of foul play surrounding a recent death, things go hilariously amok and Gerard finds there’s something sinister hiding behind the cozy vacation town he grew up in. Join us for this side-splitting comedy about murder and mayhem in Maine!

Dirty Deeds Downeast is a fast and loose comedy about those who take care of their own at the edge of society. Part Hot Fuzz and part Murder She Wrote Askari’s play examines the not-so-nice side of quaint island life. As the summer season approaches Gerard is warned his investigation might not be “good for business,” and he’ll have to choose to stick to his guns or fold.
