Palmer High School is doing a play around Thanksgiving time called Arsenic and Old Lace. But what is it even about? The story occurs in the Brewster Home in Brooklyn New York, 1941.
It follows Mortimer Brewster, a drama critic who has fallen in love and married. When he makes a trip home to disclose the news with his two maiden aunts, he finds out they have been killing old men. Auditions have already happened, but the cast has not been chosen yet.
