A psychological portrait of an inequitable marriage, this collaboration between Kaufman and his second wife, actress Leueen MacGrath is the story of a well-heeled Park Avenue publisher and his meek wife, who lives in the shadow of his success.
By George S. Kaufman and Morrie Ryskind. Music and Lyrics by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby. Cast size: 16 men, 10 women. Animal Crackers opened on October 23, 1928 at the 44th Street Theater, and it ran 191 performances.
The original 1922 production of Merton ran for 398 performances, at a time when half that number of performances could make a hit. It has been rarely revived, although a production at Minneapolis' Guthrie Theater in 1974 starred Michael Moriarty and a successful version was performed in Los Angeles' Geffen Theater in 1998, directed by John Rando.
