You Can't Take It With You - Postponed
By Moss Hart & Geo. S Kaufman
Directed by Berray Billington
This classic screwball comedy won the Pulitzer Prize in 1937 and it’s been entertaining audiences ever since. Set in the large house of a rather batty New York family, sweet-natured Alice falls for the banker’s son Tony. When her snooty, prospective in-laws arrive for dinner a day early, the event is a disaster, capped with the arrest of everyone in the household. Madcap, warm and life-affirming, this rare play will have you laughing from curtain to curtain.
Produced by Attic Theatre at U.W. Fox Communication Arts Center, 1478 Midway Road, Menasha
Performances: July 16-24, 2020

MESSAGE FROM THE ATTIC BOARD OF DIRECTORS:
March 2020
Attic Chamber Theatre for 70 years has embraced all genres of drama. Now, a currently unfolding health crisis gives us pause to reconsider our priorities. As we all adapt to the immediate new normal of daily life, ACT must adjust as well. We recognize with schools and businesses closing indefinitely, mass gatherings limited to 10 people, social distancing and non-essential business closures, our individual needs have and will continue to radically shift. We are absolutely serious about the safety of our volunteers and audiences! We love our community and your welfare is our utmost concern. In uncertain times we have decided out of an abundance of caution, to suspend the summer season with a strong commitment to be prepared to assist in the healing of our community after the pandemic subsides.
Attic Theatre has been a crucial component that makes the Fox Valley a vibrant place to live, work and play. We provide opportunities for Fox Valley artists and audiences to celebrate the human experience. The variety and quality of shows that Attic Chamber Theatre produces is exciting and will continue. We will nourish your mind, delight your spirit and enrich your life through our productions of classic, contemporary and musical play plays.
Traditionally, at the close of each summer season, Attic Chamber Theatre turns out the lights until the following year. We are eager to announce that we have been given an opportunity to continue with a fall and winter season. UWO-Fox Cities has invited Attic Chamber Theatre to rent their beautiful facility throughout the school year of 2020/2021. This gives ACT the option to push the previously announced summer productions into next fall and spring.
The show must go on!! And it will! We will come through this crisis stronger and with a deeper commitment to provide the quality entertainment you need and expect.
Stay safe, informed and follow our website — and we sincerely hope to see you in the fall.
