Sitting on the outskirts of a shady city without a name is a shoddy little used car dealership on the brink of financial collapse.

Its staff? Two sleazy salespeople, their eccentric boss and a nervous new hire with a poorly hidden secret.
All are plunged into turmoil when what seems to be the deal of a lifetime turns out to be a lot more than anyone bargained for!
​
With time ticking and the mafia now hot on their trail, our dealership heroes (can we call them that?) must band together, embarking on a madcap journey of chaos and intrigue to save the soul of their business before it all goes bust...

Expect thrilling hijinks, dodgy salespeople, divine providence, and poor business practices in this new musical. Just make sure you don't end up with yet another heavily used car from these frauds.
