You Can't Take it With You

The Vanderhof family, at the center of You Can’t Take It with You, is a collection of cheerful and erratic (yet lovable) incompetents.  Through this charming presentation of a dysfunctional family, we see the challenges the granddaughter Alice faces when she becomes engaged.  Alice and Tony are soon engaged, and a dinner party is planned for Tony’s parents—at the Vanderhof home. The family assures Alice that they will be on their best behavior, and the night is set. However, things don’t go exactly as planned.
