Show Information

Arsenic and Old Lace tickets open the door to one of American theater’s most enduring comedies—a darkly funny farce that’s been delighting audiences for generations. First premiering on January 10, 1941 at the Fulton Theatre in New York City (Broadway), the play pairs old-fashioned comic rhythm with deliciously macabre twists. Written by Joseph Kesselring, it’s an original work built for big laughs, sharp timing, and escalating chaos.

The Broadway run lasted from January 10, 1941 through June 17, 1944, making it a long-running hit in its era. While the original production is closed today, Arsenic and Old Lace remains a staple for regional, community, and amateur theatres, thanks to its tightly engineered farce structure and crowd-pleasing momentum. It also became especially well-known to mass audiences through the 1944 film adaptation.

What makes the show such a satisfying night at the theater is how expertly it uses a pressure-cooker setting and rapid-fire stagecraft—quick entrances and exits, escalating misunderstandings, and prop-driven comedy that keeps the action moving. The story’s dark subject matter is played for laughs with a distinctive “cozy macabre” tone that feels both classic and surprisingly bold.

Story Summary

Set in Brooklyn, New York in the 20th century, Arsenic and Old Lace centers on drama critic Mortimer Brewster, whose happy engagement takes a chaotic turn when he discovers a corpse in the home of his seemingly sweet elderly aunts, Abby and Martha Brewster. As Mortimer tries to protect his fiancée and contain the situation, he’s pulled into a spiral of eccentric family crises—including complications involving Teddy Brewster and Jonathan Brewster.

Onstage, the play delivers a masterclass in farce—built on escalating confusion, mistaken identity, and comic timing that keeps tightening as the stakes rise. It’s often staged in a detailed period domestic interior, with the home’s layout and key props (including a central window seat) powering the comedy beat by beat.
