You Can't Take It With You by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman
2026-03-22 14:00 (America/Chicago) | Miner’s Theatre, 204 W. Main St., Collinsville, IL, 62234
The 643 Legacy Players and Historic Miner’s Theater present “You Can’t Take It With You” by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman. A Comedy about Love, Family, and Fireworks. Yes, literally Fireworks.
The family of Martin Vanderhof lives “just around the corner from Columbia University – but don’t go looking for it.” Grandpa, as Martin is more commonly known, is the head of a large and extended family of charming eccentrics. His granddaughter, Alice, is a loving young woman who is nonetheless still embarrassed by her family’s idiosyncrasies. When Alice falls for Tony, a handsome scion of Wall Street, she fears that their two families – so unlike in manner, politics and finances – will never come together. But why be obsessed by money? After all, you can’t take it with you.
You Can’t Take It With You opened on Broadway at the Booth Theatre on December 14, 1936. A smash hit, the show ran for 838 performances and returned to Broadway five times, most recently in 2014. That production, directed by Scott Ellis, earned the Tony Award for Best Featured Actress for Annaleigh Ashford as Essie.
Come see this classic comedy in Uptown Collinsville. Doors open at 1:00 PM, show starts at 2:00 PM.
