Arsenic and Old Lace Play

Set in Brooklyn, New York in the 1940s, Arsenic and Old Lace follows drama critic Mortimer Brewster as he discovers his sweet, elderly aunts have a deadly secret: they poison lonely old men with elderberry wine laced with arsenic. As Mortimer tries to deal with his eccentric family—including a brother who thinks he’s Theodore Roosevelt and another who’s a homicidal maniac—chaos and hilarity ensue.
