Tempo Theatre Inc presents
Arsenic and Old Lace

4 Sep 2015 to 12 Sep 2015

From the same team that brought you Agatha Christie's Spider's Web in May comes, Arsenic and Old Lace  a classic comical farce by Joseph Kesselring, best known from the film of the same name that starred Cary Grant. 

Insanity runs in Mortimer’s upper-crust family. In fact, it practically gallops. His Aunts, the sweet old Brewster sisters, have a dastardly hobby concerning the lonely bachelors who would like to rent a room. His brothers are an escaped convict and a schizophrenic who thinks he’s Theodore Roosevelt. Mortimer, a drama critic, must deal with his crazy, homicidal family and local police in Brooklyn as he debates whether to go through with his recent promise to marry Elaine the woman he loves …but what if he’s mad, too?

Tickets on sale now, ($30 and $35) from canberraticketing.com.au (6275 2700) see Tempo web site for more info.

It all adds up to a great time at the theatre.

One not to miss.
