| A DAY IN HOLLYWOOD is the first half of this
entertainment which takes us to the lobby of Grauman's Chinese Theatre
in the 30s where 6 members of the ushering staff sing a musical tribute
to the screen stars and productions of that magical era.
|
| A NIGHT IN THE UKRAINE, a Marx Brothers movie
the brothers never made, is set in the stately mansion of Mrs Pavlenko,
a wealthy Ukrainian widow and introduces us to character types as featured
in the Marx Brothers' films.
The mini-musical A NIGHT IN THE UKRAINE is based on Chekov's
one-act play The Bear.
