Written by Joseph Kesselring and directed by Roxanne Lutey, Arsenic and Old Lace is the classic dark comedy that revolves around Abby and Martha Brewster and their nephews Mortimer and Jonathon and Teddy. Mortimer has announced his plans to marry his girlfriend, Elaine. Johnathon and his associate, Dr. Einstein have shown up with a dead body to dispose of. Teddy, who thinks he is Theodore Roosevelt, has been digging locks for the Panama Canal in the cellar in order to accommodate the merciful poisonings that Abby and Martha have been doing.
See how it all unfolds as the Historic Elk Rapids Town Hall transforms into the stately Brewster mansion.
