A gleefully anarchic farce where the Marx Brothers wreak havoc on opera and high society through absurdist humor, cross-dressing, and romantic scheming.

The Marx Brothers take on high society and the opera world to bring two lovers together. A sly business manager and two wacky friends of two opera singers help them achieve success while humiliating their stuffy and snobbish enemies.
