SUMMARY:An Evening with Groucho
DESCRIPTION:Dubbed “nothing short of masterful” by the Chicago Tribune\, award-winning actor Frank Ferrante recreates his PBS\, \nNew York and London acclaimed stage portrayal of legendary comedian in this fast paced 90 minutes of hilarity. \nThe two-act comedy consists of the best Groucho one-liners\, anecdotes and songs including “Hooray for Captain Spalding\,” and “Lydia\, the Tattooed Lady.” \nThe audience literally becomes part of the show as Ferrante ad-libs his way throughout the performance in grand Groucho style. \nAccompanied by his onstage pianist\, Ferrante portrays the young Groucho of stage and film and reacquaints us with the likes of brothers Harpo\, Chico\, Zeppo and Gummo\, Charlie Chaplin\, W.C. Fields and Marx foil Margaret Dumont. A show perfect for all ages! \n\nhttps://surflight.org/ \ninfo@surflight.org \n609-492-9477
