Book by Arthur Marx and Robert Fisher
Music by Larry Grossman - Lyrics by Hal Hackady
Directed by Bob Irvin

A madcap musical based on the lives of the Marx Brothers. But it's much more than that. It's a touching, song-filled celebration of a show business legend and about gutsy, tender, Minnie Marx who started it all. It is the warm and rollicking story of this extraordinary woman who gave birth to a generation of laughter in the form of the maddest, merriest quintet that ever drove a mother wild and then proceeded to do the same with audiences throughout the world. This is their story—and Minnie's. "Mama a Rainbow", "Rich Is", "They Give Me Love" and the title song are just a few of the catchy, Broadway-style melodies in this hummable score. With "Minnie's Boys", audiences are in for a most melodious, loony and lovely evening.

      Very funny! I really enjoyed it! The lady that plays Minnie is fantastic! I LOL at the scene with the Landlord (Hockmister?). I highly recommend seeing this show.
