Before the film version by Frank Capra and starring Cary Grant, there was this lovable Broadway classic about a drama critic who must put off his marriage because he is caught up in the eccentric activities of his two spinster aunts who serve a most interesting elderberry wine and a brother who thinks he is Teddy Roosevelt. Join Abby, Martha, and Mortimer for this dark comedy where insanity runs in the family.
