Super Funny Jewish Men

Quick with one-liners! Precise with physical comedy! Able to tell hilarious stories in a single routine! Look! Up on the stage! It’s a funny Jewish man!

Actually, there have been a lot of them out there making us laugh over the years, spanning the decades from vaudeville, radio, the Borscht Belt and nightclubs through TV, records, movies and beyond. Meet the greatest and latest in the business, including Jack Benny, Milton Berle, Henny Youngman, Don Rickles, Rodney Dangerfield, Lenny Bruce, Mel Brooks and such contemporary voices as Jerry Seinfeld, Larry David and, yes, even Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky. All are pioneers, all are distinctive, and all are seriously funny.

This talk will last approximately 60 minutes followed by time for Q & A.
