A late-1930’s escape from the rocky Rooseveltian recovery from the Great Depression, You Can't Take It With You is the story of the hilarious encounter between a conservative family and the crazy household of Grandpa Martin Vanderhof, whose philosophy can best be summed up in his own words when describing why he walked out his business 25 years ago and never came back: “It hit me - I wasn’t having any fun!”

This carefree liberal philosophy was adopted by his entire family, and they lived in blissful difference from the troubles of the outside world… until young Alice became engaged to the boss’ son and the two families had to meet. It was then that the fireworks started - quite literally!

The formula originated by authors Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman - a loveable family getting into scrapes and overcoming obstacles - has been adopted as a format by most of today's television situation comedies.

Please join us for an enlivening - and enlightening - production that is sure to tickle your funny bone while also encouraging you to take a good hard look at which side of the American Dream is most important: material success or personal fulfillment. After all, You Can’t Take It With You…
