This is the classic story of Mortimer Brewster, a drama critic struggling to maintain his sanity amongst a family of lunatics. With a little brother who thinks he's Teddy Roosevelt, two sweet elderly aunts who invite lonely old men to dinner and poisons them out of mercy, and an older brother who kills for .... somewhat less charitable reasons, it's anyone's guess whether Mortimer will make it through the night! Arsenic and Old Lace is a hilarious farce that has stood the test of time .... it's just as funny today as when it opened on Broadway 60 years ago.
