Join us as we read the play Arsenic and Old Lace , a play written in 1939 by American playwright Joseph Kesselring. It has become best known through the 1944 film adaptation starring Cary Grant and directed by Frank Capra. The play is a farcical dark comedy revolving around the Brewster family, who were descended from Mayflower settlers. Arsenic and Old Lace has also had many revivals and television productions over the years.

Scripts by Joseph Kessiring shall be provided.
