The Artist Rolls
32 - Frank Ferrante Never Says Die
We are joined by actor, director, and producer Frank Ferrante—described by The New York Times as "the greatest living interpreter of Groucho Marx's material," and known to Teatro Zinzanni audiences as the irrepressible force of nature Chef Ceasar. Frank tells us about the need to be "relentless" in comedy and in shaping a career, the surprising freedom in playing a way-larger-than-life character, and how he got his start by impressing Groucho Marx's own family and a couple of Broadway legends.
