ACT II Community Theater

You Can’t Take It With You relates the humorous encounter between a conservative family and the crazy household of Grandpa Martin Vanderhof. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and adapted into an Academy Award-winning film, You Can't Take It With You has been a perennial favorite for more than 70 years. Set during the Great Depression, the play tells the story of two very different families coping with love and searching for the American dream. The exacting Kirby family believes in rules, hard work, and rigid organization. The delightfully mad Sycamore family, on the other hand, celebrates independence and freedom from convention—with a certain requisite amount of chaos. When young Tony Kirby falls in love with Alice Sycamore, the two families are forced to sort out their differences and ultimately determine what's really important in life.
