Kelly surprises Nancy late one night when he returns unexpectedly to the cold dark stage of an empty theater where they are currently in rehearsals for a stage play, a murder mystery. He's come back to pick up a script. She's there to meet her husband the playwright. As certain clues unfold onstage, they find themselves caught up in a web of lies and deceit. And someone may pay the ultimate price! Joker's Wild pays homage to film-noir, an 'Agatha Christie like' one act, a murder mystery that also has some fun referencing the post war classics.
