Story

Set in 1936, You Can't Take It With You is a delightful, chaotic comedy where the eccentric Sycamore family's joyful, unconventional life — filled with amateur fireworks, taxidermy and spontaneous ballet — collides with the rigid world of a Wall Street banker, proving that love and living fully trump money and conformity. A Pulitzer Prize-winning comedy and a staple of the American stage, this is a show not to miss!

Authors: By Moss Hart & George S. Kaufman
Director: Edie L. Norlin

You Can’t Take It With You is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York.
