Production and reception

Grand Slam Opera is a satire of the Major Bowes amateur hour, heard weekly on network radio. Buster Keaton co-wrote the screenplay with director Charles Lamont. The opening sequence, with Elmer taking his leave of Gopher City, Arizona by train, has Elmer and chorus singing a parody of George M.

Grand Slam Opera was an exceptional success, with Buster Keaton receiving some of his all-time best notices. "Easily the best comedy Buster Keaton has ever delivered... Book it without seeing it. It can't miss," reported Film Daily.
