The program retitled Frank Ferrante's Groucho aired on over 600 stations in 2022 including Chicago PBS station WTTW. 'Groucho' tours with dates nationwide and in Canada with one-nighters and sit-downs beginning in May. Venues include Philadelphia's Walnut Street Theatre, Calgary's Stage West and the Laguna Playhouse.

Cabaret ZaZou is directed by Dreya Weber and also stars critically acclaimed performers LiV Warfield, James Harkness, Viktor Kee, Ulzi Mergen and Trio Vertex, all accompanied by a band of world-class Chicago musicians. In addition to the show's acts, the evening's experience includes a 4-course meal provided by Blue Plate Chicago. The show is produced by Randolph Entertainment.
