BREMEN — Family oddities take center stage for Bremen High School’s fall play, “You Can’t Take It With You.”
Director Mindi Slone said the comedy in three acts will have the audience “walking away laughing.”
“The Sycamore family is an eclectic, strange family,” said Slone, explaining the plot of the show. “They have one normal daughter, Alice, who falls in love with a normal boy. Alice then meets her boyfriend’s family, which is very uptight and proper.”
The play is set in 1936 in New York City. The cast of 19 includes some seniors as well as a few students who have never acted before.
