REVIEW: Dinner with Groucho

Reading Time: 2 minutesT. S. Eliot and Groucho Marx were unlikely pen pals, corresponding for three years until they met in June of 1964. The reports say that Groucho reread King Lear so he could hold his own in conversation; Eliot was more interested in talking about Duck Soup. This meeting is the inspiration for Frank McGuinness’s newest play which revels in the imagined repartee of these two giants of their field.
