You Can't Take It With You

Closed December 13, 2015

One of the great American comedies

Why See You Can't Take It With You?

Pulitzer Prize Prize-Winning Comedy

One of the great American comedies, You Can't Take It With You is a warm and fuzzy slice of pure escapism. Written by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman, the story centers on two distinctly different families thrown together in Depression-era New York City. Famously adapted into a Frank Capra movie in 1938, the play was last seen on Broadway last year, in a Tony-Award winning adaptation starring James Earl Jones and Rose Byrne.

Helming this Northlight production is Devon de Mayo, while the cast includes Brad Armacost, Jenny Avery and Lucy Carapetyan.

WHAT IS YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU ABOUT?

Tony Kirby and Alice Sycamore, newly engaged, decide to invite Tony's parents to dine at Alice's family home. The Sycamore's can't seem to see what he sees in Alice and her mad-cap family, including her eccentric Grandfather, her mother (who writes erotic plays) and her father (who manufacturers fireworks... in their basement).

Though Tony and Alice are very much in love, the differences between their two families make Alice wonder if a marriage would ever work. Will love trump family loyalty, can both families learn a little something from each other?
