Free Community Screening Courtesy of Neon

Animal Crackers

With the generous support of our friends at NEON, we invite everyone to come together through the magic of film with a series of free community screenings, as we continue to navigate these difficult times.

This is a free event. Seating is on a first come, first serve basis and admission is not guaranteed.

In perhaps their most frequently quoted film, Animal Crackers, the Marx Brothers transform their smash-hit Broadway musical to the big screen with uproarious results. An aristocratic house party in honor of famed explorer Captain Spaulding (Groucho) may have met its match when the Brothers unleash their trademark brand of wordplay, musical comedy and slapstick.

“Groucho shines; Harpo remains a pantomimic clown who ranks with the highest; Chico adds an unusual comedy sense to his dialog as well as business and piano playing; and Zeppo, if in on a split, is lucky.” – Variety
