Full casting has been announced for Dallas Theater Center’s production of Joseph Kesselring’s Arsenic and Old Lace. Scott Schwartz will direct the play, which runs February 4-March 13.

Broadway legends Betty Buckley and Tovah Feldshuh play the homicidal Brewster sisters, Martha and Abigail, who take to relieving the loneliness of old men by inviting them in for a nice glass of homemade elderberry wine. It just happens to be laced with a few additives: arsenic, strychnine, and “just a pinch” of cyanide.

The cast will also include J. Brent Alford (Teddy Brewster), James Crawford (Officer O’Hara), Jason Douglas (Jonathan Brewster), Nehal Joshi (Dr. Einstein), Chris McCreary (Officer Brophy), Steve Powell (Mr. Gibbs/Mr. Witherspoon), Abbey Siegworth (Elaine Harper), Paul Taylor (Lt. Rooney/Reverend Doctor Harper), and Lee Trull (Mortimer Brewster).

The creative team will include Anna Louizos (scenic designer), William Ivey Long (costume designer), Jeff Croiter (lighting designer), Curtis Craig (sound designer), and Michael Holland (composer/lyricist).
