Humorous Play Ends Season For Dramatists Besides being a sage proverb, You Can't Take It With You is the title of the final play of the year, to be presented by the Drama department, May 7 and 9, in the college theatre. Written by George S. Kauf man and Moss Hart, the Pulit zer Prize winning play tells the fables and foibles of the Syca more family who are differ ent, to say the least. Grandpa Sycamore is a firm dis believer in work and income taxes; his daughter-in-law, Penny, is a self-styled playwright; Essie, the granddaughter, is a ballet dancer who respects her explosive teach er, Boris Kolenkhov. Fireworks are made in the base ment of the Sycamore home by Mr. De Pinna and Penny's husband, Paul, and as if this isn't enough, Essie's husband, Ed, is much im pressed by Communist phraseolo gy- The only reasonable one in the family is Alice Sycamore, who brings her fiance to meet her fam ily the results of which meeting exceed the imagination. First produced in New York in 1936, the play, according to Brooks Atkinson, drama critic for the New York Times, is one of Hart's and Kaufman's comedies which would be hard to improve upon for fan tastic wit and humor, compact ness in form, and swiftness in tempo .
