"You Can't Take it With You" a Success

Dec. 4 was the opening night of the high school play, “You Can’t Take it With You.” 
This play is a comedy is about a young couple, recently engaged, who come from very different families. Alice Sycamore, played by Allison Sleeting, lives in a home whose family's social structure is far from normal, while Tony Kirby, played by Bryce McAuliffe, is part of a high class, structured, business family.
The pivotal part of the play was the dinner shared between the two families. This is when the drastic differences between the two families is brought out directly for the audience. The list of fiascoes starts with the Kirby family arriving on the wrong day. From then on, the night continues into a spiral of madness.
The play is high energy and rarely encounters a dull moment. The long line of somewhat random characters keeps the audience on their toes. The entire cast delivered a successful performance that provided the audience with a fulfilling comedic experience. Thank you to everyone who supported the cast by coming to the show and congratulations to everyone involved in the production!
