Frank Ferrante presents his portrayal of Groucho Marx, which has been seen on PBS, and in sold-out shows in New York and London. This fast-paced comedy consists of legendary Groucho one-liners, anecdotes and songs including "Hooray for Captain Spalding" and "Lydia, the Tattooed Lady." When he's not playing Groucho, Ferrante is an award-winning actor and playwright, and an audience favorite at San Francisco's famous Teatro ZinZanni.

I have seen Frank as Groucho once before and had to take my parents, they loved the show! Frank is Groucho, even Groucho's son thought so when Frank tried out for the part. His show is great, the best part being the audience participation. He excels in this arena with his quick wit. No one in the audience is safe but it proves to be quite entertaining. I highly recommend this show, it is a hoot.

My wife and I really enjoyed this show! Reportedly Frank has played Groucho so long that he has become this movie character in persona and personality. A very funny comedian on his own right, Frank can improvise and banter with anyone in the audience without prior material. Watching him perform was almost like watching the real Groucho in his heyday!

Sheer delight! We had a wonderful time, this guy really knows Groucho. :)
