Kaufman and Hart’s delightful comedy You Can’t Take it with You is a batty reflection on the madness of sanity in a mad world and it remains as insightful and delightful as when it first graced the stage. It’s a heartfelt comedy about being yourself that resonates with a 21st century audience in need of a laugh.
In this brash reworking of Chekhov's Uncle Vanya, a group of old friends, ex-lovers, estranged in-laws, and lifelong enemies gather to grapple with life's thornies questions--and each other. Incurably lustful and lonely, hapless and hopeful, these seven souls collide and stumble their way towards a new understanding that Life Sucks! Or does it?
