“Arsenic and Old Lace” was premiered in 1942 and may be the most amicable, famous and dark among all famous dark theatre comedies. Nothing and nobody is ‘normal’ here. Abby and Martha are the least normal of them all; they do the darkest things with the greatest air of normality and helpful peace of mind. Morality is a malleable term in the two aunts’ house, but how they all uphold it as a matter of course is very, very funny.
Dates with English surtitles:
