After tickets sold out for the Grove City College Theatre Program’s spring play, “You Can’t Take It with You,” the cast performed an additional show Wednesday.

The play, written by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman, tells the story of Alice Sycamore, played by sophomore Abigail Worlfgang, and her concerns about introducing her fiancé, Toby Kirby, played by sophomore Austin Zeilstra, and his family to her wacky relatives. Over the course of the play, the audience learns the value of choosing to do something you’re passionate about in your vocation and loving the people in your life, even with their quirks.

Grove City’s production features two faculty members: Professor of English Dr. Eric Potter plays Alice’s grandfather, Martin Vanderhof, and Assistant to the President, Miss Betty Tallerico, plays actress Gay Wellington.

The cast will take the stage twice more tomorrow at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. in the Little Theater at the Pew Fine Arts Center.
