Groucho
Mustachioed sibling comedian
Groucho refers to Groucho Marx, the wisecracking member of the Marx Brothers comedy team, known for his stooped walk, painted mustache, waggling eyebrows, and cigar.
The name evokes irreverent wit and absurdist humor.
A Groucho disguise—oversized glasses with attached nose and mustache—is a novelty costume staple: He put on a Groucho and crashed the party.
