Forgotten Precinct centers around two older detectives, Jack Lacey and Jim Bob Cagney, who, though they will never admit it, have been put out to pasture.  Jack, the more suave and sophisticated of the Cagey & Lacey team has his hands full with the somewhat slow-witted Jim Bob.  Jack's penchant for telling cop stories is matched only by Jim Bob's affinity for not understanding them and his own propensity for telling corny jokes and stories.  But alas, their tranquility is shattered when the captain sends two young, hard charging female detectives, Harriet "Harri" Callahan and Kathy " Flash" Gordon, to the Precinct to put some life into the " Geritol" squad.  Jim Bob's astute observation, upon meeting Harriet, "you're a woman", is equaled only by Harriet's reply and this is just the beginning of a stormy relationship between the "dinosaurs" and the "greenhorns".

But this play is much more than clever jokes, puns, stories, and comedic twists and turns.  It has an underlying story about changing times, reluctance to change, gaining trust, and earning respect.  Act I ends with the four detectives responding to a robbery in progress at "Charlie Chan's," (that's what we call it, it's a little hole-in-the-wall down the street).  The four redeem themselves during the robbery, capturing the Clinton Gang (they're called the Clinton Gang because they rob fast-food restaurants). 

Act II begins with the detectives recounting their actions at Charlie Chan's and as the they compliment each other and learn more about each other, a noticeable change takes place;  the tension fades and trust begins to build.  They soon realize that they have earned one another's respect and come to the conclusion that they acted as a team.  Now that's a scarey thought.

Another scarey thought is that many of the stories and episodes, such as, "the garage door opener, harbor patrol, water department and Mad Dog" stories in this play are based on actual events garnered from the author's twenty-eight years in federal law enforcement.  Truth is stranger than fiction.

This play was first produced, February 12, 1999, at The Dinner Theater, St. Simon's Island, Georgia, and opened to a sell out audience (a first for this theater).  The success continued as the show played to sell out audiences every night of its run (another first for this theater).  Audiences loved the show so much that they began laughing with opening the scene and never stopped.
