Arsenic and Old Lace

By Joseph Kesselring - September 26 - October 18

This dark comedic tale features the crazy Brewster family, including two spinster aunts who poison men with arsenic-laced wine. Before he can get married, Mortimer Brewster must decide whether insanity runs in his family. It's not a good sign that his brother thinks himself to be Teddy Roosevelt!

This hysterical farce centers on two downtrodden Shakespearean actors, Leo Clark and Jack Gable, who seek to claim an inheritance by impersonating lost-lost relatives.
