Join us at the Lincoln for an April Fools' evening of zany anarchy as the Marx Brothers are let loose in the hoity-toity world of the fine arts, running amok during A Night at the Opera!
In one of the most hilarious movies ever made, business manager Otis B. Driftwood (Groucho Marx) meets aspiring singer Ricardo (Allan Jones), who is determined to win the love of fellow performer Rosa (Kitty Carlisle).
Aided by Fiorello (Chico Marx) and Tomasso (Harpo Marx), Otis attempts to unite the young couple, but faces opposition from the preening star Lassparri (Walter Woolf King), who also has his sights on Rosa. Traveling from Italy to New York, Otis and friends rally to try and win the day.
"A Night at the Opera is the most beautifully timed madness of 1935." —St. Louis Dispatch
"As usual when the Marx Brothers are on hand, plot gives place to panic and It's only a question of picking one's pet scenes and taking care not to laugh oneself to death right there in the theatre." —The Philadelphia Enquirer
