Rental Costumes for You Can't Take It With You
Authors: George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart
Time Period: 1936
Setting: The living room of the Vanderhof family home in New York City (located near Columbia University on the Upper West Side)
Summary: The eccentric Vanderhof-Sycamore family is run by Grandpa Martin Vanderhof, who quit his job decades ago and lives life happily collecting snakes and attending commencements. His daughter Penny writes endless plays, her husband Paul makes fireworks in the basement, and granddaughter Essie practices terrible ballet while making candy. The only "normal" member, Alice, works an office job and falls in love with her boss's son, Tony Kirby. Alice invites the stiff, wealthy Kirby family over for dinner on the wrong night. The dinner erupts into total chaos—culminating in a basement fireworks explosion and federal agents raiding the house.

Durable Costumes
Durable Costumes
Our costumes are not brand-new. In fact, they've appeared in thousands of productions (much like the costumes worn on Broadway). We employ a proprietary process of building costumes that will last many years, can be altered easily to fit virtually any body type, and can be laundered without chemical/industrial procesing.
