GROUCHO -- Viterbo University

Groucho Marx: Frank Ferrante

A one man show featuring Frank Ferrante as Groucho Marx.

Truly a fantastic show. Frank is so incredibly much like how we remember Groucho from the movies and television appearances that it seems as if Groucho himself is back and live on stage.

As one might expect, the best parts of a performance like this is the off-the-cuff remarks; the responses to things happening around him on the stage and in the theatre.

For me, one of the incredible parts of the evening was when Frank chose my own son to go on to the stage and he put the Groucho make-up on him and taught him the Groucho walk saying to the audience,"Hey I can't do this forever!"

An absolutely wonderful show. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard!
