     HEART-OPENING, LIFE-AFFIRMING AND MAGICAL, SPOTLIGHT THEATER’S PRODUCTION OF “YOU CAN’T TAKE IT WITH YOU” DAZZLES!
     Hopefully you can still get a ticket for this utterly charming production that’s directed by Bernie Cardell.
     In 1937 George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart’s “You Can’t Take It With You” won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. When it was adapted for the screen it won the Academy Award(s) for Best Picture and Best Director. 

Director Bernie Cardell has cast Spotlight favorites: 
Dan Connell (Grandpa Vanderhof), Katie Mangett (Penny Sycamore), Charles Wingerter (Paul Sycamore), Carolyn Lohr (Alice Sycamore), Kelly Alayne Dwyer (Essie Carmichael), Luke Rahmsdorff-Terry (Ed Carmichael), Eddie Schumacher (Mr. DePinna), Brandon Palmer (Tony Kirby), Molly Turner (Mrs. Miriam Kirby), John Green (Mr. Anthony Kirby), Gracen Porreca (Donald), Meg Ralph (Rheba), Mari Geasair (Kolenkhov), Scott Hogg (Wilbur C. Henderson), Jan Cleveland (Grand Duchess Olga Katrina) and Kerry Beebe (Gay Wellington).

     This entire cast is superb to a man/woman. Nevertheless
Special kudos go to Dan O’Connell as Grandpa Vanderhof, Jan Cleveland as the Grand Duchess, Olga Katrina, Mari Geasair as Kohlenkov and Katie Mangett as Penny Sycamore.
     This beloved old war horse is a perennial favorite that’s full of warmth and great good humor. Do yourself a huge favor and get on over to The John Hand Theater on Lowry and see SPOTLIGHT THEATER’S enchanting Grand Finale!  It’s a glorious swan song you will long remember.

Thanks, Spotlight Theater, for all the wonderful memories!!!Marlowe's Musings
