Arsenic and Old Lace

Pine View High School is proud to announce performance dates for our spring play:

Arsenic and Old Lace
By: Joseph Kesselring
In the Norman Lister Auditorium at Pine View High School.

Synopsis...
The play, a clever combination of the farcical and the macabre, centers on two elderly sisters who are famous in their Brooklyn neighborhood for their numerous acts of charity. Unfortunately, however, their charity includes poisoning lonely old men who come to their home looking for lodging. The two women are assisted in their crimes by their mentally challenged nephew who believes he is Teddy Roosevelt and who frequently blasts a bugle and yells "charge" as he bounds up the stairs. Matters get complicated when a second nephew, a theater critic, discovers the murders and a third nephew appears after having just escaped from a mental institution. In his adroit mixture of comedy and mayhem, Kesselring satirizes the charitable impulse as he pokes fun at the conventions of the theater (Cengage Learning). ARSENIC AND OLD LACE is a fast-paced comedy that'll have you rolling over in your grave- ummm, we mean seats.
