ABOUT YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU: At first the Sycamores seem mad, but it is not long before you realize that if they’re mad, then the rest of the world is madder. In contrast to these delightful people are the unhappy Kirbys. Tony, the attractive young son of the Kirbys, falls in love with Alice Sycamore and brings his parents to dine at the Sycamore house on the wrong evening. The shock sustained by Mr. and Mrs. Kirby leads to a hilarious clash of cultures and values. And ends with a touching message.
