Britain's master farceur is at it again. Set in a hospital, “It Runs in the Family” contains the usual assortment of farcical nuts running in and out of doors mistaking everybody for someone else, as Dr. Mortimore tries to fend off a paternity suit, an ex-wife, a punkish son and various other lunatics so that he may, at last, deliver the Ponsonby Lecture in an international conference. 

Allen Contemporary Theatre seeks to entertain and enrich the cultural life of the community through a wide variety of challenging and creative theatrical experiences. We were formerly known as Allen’s Community Theatre; but as we enter our 11th year of productions in 2022, we updated our name to reflect our ongoing commitment to provide the highest quality theatre experience while acknowledging our evolution into a more contemporary theatre.
