                      SEE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE FILLING OUT!

             This Amendment No. 18 to Schedule 13G with regard to The Marcus
   Corporation is being filed on behalf of the undersigned to amend Item 4 of
   the originally filed Schedule 13G.  Except as expressly stated herein,
   there have been no material changes in the information set forth in the
   Schedule 13G.

   Item 4.   Ownership (as of the date of filing of this Amendment to
             Schedule 13G):

        (a)  Amount Beneficially Owned:  2,458,278
        (b)  Percent of Class:  12.5%
        (c)  Number of shares as to which such person has:

             (i)     sole power to vote or to direct the vote:  1,520,862
                     Shares
             (ii)    shared power to vote or to direct the vote:  937,416
                     Shares
             (iii)   sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 
                     1,520,862 Shares
             (iv)    shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 
                     937,416 Shares

             Except for 2,750 shares of Common Stock which the undersigned
   currently has the right to acquire upon the exercise of stock options
   granted by The Marcus Corporation under its stock option plan and the 100
   shares of Common Stock held by Ms. Gershowitz's husband, all of the
   reported beneficial ownership of Common Stock results from the beneficial
   ownership of shares of Class B Common Stock, which are convertible at any
   time into Common Stock on a share-for-share basis.  The percent of class
   figure assumes conversion of all outstanding shares of Class B Common
   Stock into shares of Common Stock.  Since each share of Class B Common
   stock is entitled to 10 votes as opposed to 1 vote for each share of
   Common Stock, it is extremely unlikely that Ms. Gershowitz would alone
   convert a significant portion of her Class B Stock into Common Stock.

             Ms. Gershowitz's beneficial ownership consists of:

             (i)     2,750 shares of Common Stock which Ms. Gershowitz has
                     the right to acquire upon exercise of stock options;
             (ii)    100 shares of Common Stock held individually by
                     Ms. Gershowitz's husband; 
             (iii)   1,518,112 shares of Class B Common Stock held
                     individually by Ms. Gershowitz;
             (iv)    299,547 shares of Class B Common Stock held by Ms.
                     Gershowitz as a Shareholder of Guest House Inn, Inc.
             (v)     2,135 shares of Class B Common Stock held individually
                     by Ms. Gershowitz's husband; and
             (vi)    635,634 shares of Class B Common Stock held by Ms.
                     Gershowitz as Trustee.

   The trusts, the corporation and Mr. Gershowitz, for shares held
   individually, each have the right to receive dividends and proceeds from
   the sale of securities held thereby.

                                    SIGNATURE

             After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and
   belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is
   true, complete and correct.
