‘You Can’t Take It With You’ is set in New York City in the large house of an eccentric family and the story unfolds in three acts. It won the 1937 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and was adapted into a feature film which won the Academy Award for Best Picture and Best Director. It is a madcap, idealistic comedy that reinforces the idea that people can only live life to the fullest by doing whatever makes them truly happy. Grandpa Vanderhof and his wacky family, the Sycamores, have been happily living their zany lives in his house for many years. When practical young Alice Sycamore becomes engaged to her company’s Vice President Tony Kirby, the clan must straighten up to meet the new in-laws. Despite the best laid plans, disaster follows.
