Synopsis
This inspired bio musical about The One and Only begins with Groucho as an old man doing his famous Carnegie Hall show.
It then goes back to the beginnings of the Marx Brothers and their struggles to make it in vaudeville, their rise to stardom and their eventual break up.
All classic Groucho songs are included.
One actor plays Groucho, another plays Chico and Harpo, and one actress plays all the wives, girlfriends and Margaret Dumont.
A hit in New York, across the U.S. and in London, this show will delight Marx Brothers fans and the as yet uninitiated.
Press Reviews
