Performer

I have a long history of playing Groucho Marx, including in my own adaptation of I'll Say She Is, in Music of the Marx Brothers at 54 Below, and in stage productions such as Groucho on the Air. My performances as Groucho have been called “uncanny and hilarious” by Time Out New York, and the New York Times said “Noah Diamond might as well be Groucho,” and if it’s press you want, there’s more here. Read more about my ongoing Groucho work here.

In each of the Nero Fiddled musicals, I appeared in multiple roles, and also narrated. In my solo show, 400 Years in Manhattan, I played the challenging role of Noah Diamond, to great acclaim. I played Creon, Ruler of Thebes, in Quarantigone. In recent years, I’ve also narrated and appeared in the Freedonia Trilogy, emceed The New Manhattan Project, and happily popped up onstage pretty much whenever I’m asked.

I was seen in Trav S.D.'s Travesties of 2012, a presentation of the American Vaudeville Theatre and the New York Musical Theatre Festival.

I've performed extensively in improv shows, cabarets, and dozens of plays and musicals.
