A DAY IN HOLLYWOOD/A NIGHT IN THE UKRAINE
Book and Lyrics by Dick Vosburgh

“A night of magic.” —The New York Post
Who better to shake those winter blues than the Marx Brothers! Two one-act musicals provide a “double feature” as hilarious as any presented in Hollywood’s heyday. The first act, A DAY IN HOLLYWOOD, takes us to the lobby of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in the 1930s where the ushers sing a musical tribute to the screen stars and productions of that magical era – including a musical homage to film clichés and a tap salute to the 1930 Production Code governing on-screen “naughtiness.” The second act, A NIGHT IN THE UKRAINE, sweeps us away to Russia for a madcap musical featuring all the usual loony Marx Brothers suspects. Nominated for nine Tony Awards, this rollicking, innovative two-musicals-in-one is a guaranteed toe-tapping, belly-laughing delight.
