The Community Players - "You Can't Take It With You” at Jenks Auditorium
"Meet the Sycamore family, a collection of lovably eccentric incompetents, who keep a printing press in the parlor, manufacture fireworks in the basement, are friends with an ex-Grand Duchess, and include a Grandpa who does not believe in paying taxes. When daughter Alice falls in love with straight-laced Tony Kirby and invites his conservative, high society parents to dinner, she orders her family to "ordinary up", which means act like normal people. As with most things in this wacky family, things don't go exactly as planned."
