For What It’s Worth at 918 Bathurst Centre

Toronto Film School Acting students are set to tackle an adaptation of a Pulitzer Prize-winning play about a charmingly eccentric family when their production of For What It’s Worth hits the stage at the 918 Bathurst Centre later this month.

Directed by Tanya Rintoul, the 75-minute play is an adaptation of Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman’s 1937 play You Can’t Take It With You, which is widely regarded as one of the most popular and successful plays of modern times.

“I am amazed everyday how relevant the text is to us still, and particularly to our students who are choosing to pursue their dreams, as I did, over far more straightforward professions,” Rintoul said of the play, which she adapted for her talented cast of fifth term Acting for Film, TV & the Theatre students.

For What It’s Worth, which is stage managed by Salma Ali, will take to the stage at the 918 Bathurst Centre for Culture, Arts, Media & Education for a three-performance run from March 19-21 as follows:

• Wednesday, March 19 at 7 p.m.
• Thursday, March 20 at 9 p.m.
• Friday, March 21 at 7 p.m.

The 918 Bathurst Centre is located at 918 Bathurst St. Tickets are free and available at the door.
