A Farce

This black farce follows the fortunes of two young thieves, Dennis and Hal.

Dennis is an undertaker's hearse driver and, with Hal, he robs the bank next to the funeral parlour and returns to Hal's home to hide out with the loot.

Hal's mother has just died and the cash is stashed in her coffin, whilst her body is secreted around the house.

With the arrival of Inspector Truscott the plot turns topsy-turvy.
