Arsenic & Old Lace

By Joseph Kesselring

Directed by Steve Nolls

The classic black-comedy about a lifelong bachelor who is finally getting married, but discovers on his wedding day his elderly aunts have a hobby: poisoning old men and burying them in the basement, with the help of Uncle Teddy (who thinks he’s Teddy Roosevelt). What will his new wife think of her in-laws! A madcap comedy for all ages, but with a dash of Arsenic.
