Arsenic & Old Lace Opens at Gallery Theater April 1-16

Opening April 1 through 16 in the arena theater is Arsenic & Old Lace. Meet the charming and innocent ladies who populate their cellar with The Remains of socially and religiously "acceptable" roomers, the antics of their brother who thinks he is Teddy Roosevelt and the activities of the other brother-well, these require no further description or amplification here; a comedy from start to finish. Of the twelve plays written by Kesselring, Arsenic and Old Lace was the most successful, and, according to the opening night review in the New York Times, the play was "so funny that none of us will ever forget it."
