ARSENIC & OLD LACE Opens Tomorrow at Derby Dinner Playhouse

By:

Derby Dinner Playhouse kicks off their 2016-2017 season with the popular comedy ARSENIC & OLD LACE, opening May 18 and running through June 26, 2016. For ticket information please call 812-288-8281 or visit www.derbydinner.com

A riotous tale of two charming old ladies who dispense cheer to all, along with elderberry wine spiked with arsenic! The ladies are not the only murderous members of the Brewster clan. We meet nephew Jonathan, who has his face altered to hide from the authorities, his assistant "Dr. Einstein", and his brother Teddy, who believes he is actually Teddy Roosevelt. Add a love story, several dead bodies, and some very confused cops and you are sure to enjoy this zany comedy!

ARSENIC & OLD LACE originally opened on Broadway in 1941 with Boris Karloff starring in the role of Jonathan Brewster and Frank Capra directed the film version in 1944 starring Cary Grant. This play was written by Joseph Kesselring and Derby Dinner's production is under the direction of and produced by Bekki Jo Schneider. The cast will include Janet Essenpreis, Debbie King-Raque, David Myers, Tina Jo Wallace, J.R. Stuart, Brian Bowman, and more!
