I've seen both the play and movie. The play I saw as a video tape, I'd just watched it. It was from a community theater production my father was in and my mum directed. It wasn't mediocre to me. It happened several years before I came to live with them. Pops played Einstein. I usually watch the play near Christmas. Their production had some lines that aren't in any other, as the actor playing Johnathan and Pops played with some of the lines, adding a bit extra to some of them. The line about the grave is written, "It's smooth as a lake." But in their production Jonathan quips back, "How smooth is that lake." Einstein says, "A mountain lake, in the dead of winter, on a windless day, with fader, sitting on the bank, not catching any fish. Which he was good at. Almost as good as he was at not working."
yes it’s in the movie I love the movie. I have only seen mediocre(amateur) productions of the play

There are some very fine amateur productions. But not all amateur productions are.
 
In this one, they had the sisters finishing each others sentences on every line where they were both present. At the end of the line where one sister describes the mixture used, the other sister adds, "And I push the cork in, jackrabbit fast, or its whoopsy-daisy for us." because cyanide and arsenic give off vapor that'll kill you in a few breaths.

Arsenic is a metal. Its compounds are salts. What are they adding to make some kind of instant-kill arsenous vapor?

(I've never seen the play.)
