Description
FRANK FERRANTE'S HIGHLY ACCLAIMED SHOW COMES TO WESTERLY
AS THE COLONIAL THEATRE'S 2025 OFFERING in WILCOX PARK
July 30th - August 10th
Having performed over 3,000 performances as 'Groucho' internationally in over 500 cities for over 35 years, this will be the first time the award-winning actor will bring the show to Rhode Island in a special arrangement with The Colonial Theatre.
Dubbed "nothing short of masterful" by the Chicago Tribune, award-winning actor Frank Ferrante recreates his PBS, New York and London acclaimed stage portrayal of legendary comedian in this fast paced 90 minutes of hilarity. The two-act comedy consists of the best Groucho one-liners, anecdotes and songs including “Hooray for Captain Spalding,” and “Lydia, the Tattooed Lady.” The audience literally becomes part of the show as Ferrante ad-libs his way throughout the performance in grand Groucho style. Accompanied 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!
