The Midtown International Theatre Festival presents

A Night in the Kremlin

Book by Bernard Besserglik

Music and lyrics by Bob Barton


Harpo Marx, arriving in Moscow in November 1933 as a good-will ambassador, rides to the rescue of a pair of star-crossed lovers after his interpreter’s fiancé is wrongfully accused of sabotage. His intervention leads to two encounters with Joseph Stalin and a riotous chase through the Kremlin. Songs, gags, thrills and spills. A political parable told in the manner of a Marx Brothers movie.

Directed by Cosmin Chivu

Produced by Anthony Francavilla



With: Maria Deasy, David Douglas, Jeff Essex, Lawrence Frank, Marc Garber, Angus Hepburn, Geoffrey D. Hill, Brandt Johnson, Briana Layon, Daniel Popa, Peter Tedeschi, David Zhonzinsky
