VP_You Can't Take it With You logoYOU CAN’T TAKE IT WITH YOU
Village Players
Feb. 25-March 5
[Fort Thomas]

Directed by Greg Hatfield
Produced by Angela Klocke Forbes & Peggy Kenney

Cast: Harold Murphy as Grandpa, Josh Flowers as Tony, Katie Jensen as Alice, Rusty Lacy as Olga, Adam Carter as Henderson, Keith Cassidy as Kolenkhov, Bill Brohaugh as Paul, Hannah McCauley as Essie, Jack Kremer as Ed, Saundra Bailey as Rheba, James Christian Jr. as Donald, Jim Waldfogle as Mr. Depinna, Steve Phelan as Mr. Kirby, Trisha Cooper as Mrs. Kirby, Dava Lynn as Gay Wellington & Angela Klocke Forbes as Penny

At first the Sycamores seem mad, but it’s not long before we realize that if they are mad, the rest of the world is madder. In contrast to these delightful people are the unhappy Kirbys. The plot shows how Tony, attractive young son of the Kirbys, falls in love with Alice and brings his parents to dine at the Sycamore home on the wrong evening. You Can’t Take It With You is a madcap, idealistic comedy that reinforces the idea that you can only live life to the fullest by doing whatever makes you happy.

About the Show:
Greg and Kate have moved to Manhattan after twenty-two years of child-raising in the suburbs. Greg’s career as a financial trader is winding down, while Kate’s career, as a public-school English teacher, is beginning to offer her more opportunities. Greg brings home a dog he found in the park—or that has found him—bearing only the name “Sylvia” on her name tag. A street-smart mixture of Lab and poodle, Sylvia becomes a major bone of contention between husband and wife. The marriage is put in serious jeopardy until, after a series of hilarious and touching complications, Greg and Kate learn to compromise, and Sylvia becomes a valued part of their lives.
