<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:105%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">An uproarious farce,
<i>Arsenic and Old Lace</i> is an American classic. Life is good for Mortimer Brewster. With a dream job as a drama critic for a prominent New York newspaper and recent engagement to his sweetheart Elaine, what could go wrong? Well, what about finding out
that his sweet, spinster aunts Martha and Abby have been poisoning lonely old men for years with homemade elderberry wine laced with a touch of arsenic.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:105%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">More? What about learning that his brother Teddy, who thinks himself to be Teddy Roosevelt, has been burying his aunts’ victims in the basement thinking they
succumbed to Yellow Fever at the Panama Canal. Had enough? How about Mortimer’s other brother, the maniacal criminal Jonathan, who decides to hideout from the police at his aunts’ house with alcoholic sidekick, Dr. Einstein, on the same night that the aunts
were planning to bury their latest victim, which also happens to be the same night Mortimer stops by with his fiancée.

his fiancé – all while trying to keep his own sanity and avoid his murderous brother’s intentions.
