2. Old Jews Telling Jokes

Legendary comedian Mel Brooks enthused, Chock full of laughs! Old Jews Telling Jokes, showcases five actors in a revue-type production that pays tribute to and reinvents classic jokes of the past and present. It celebrates the rich tradition of Jewish humor and all the rabbis, complaining wives, fed- up husbands, patience-challenged physicians, gossiping ladies, and competitive men populating it. The humor is suggestive and even raunchy as the Old Jews make fun of themselves as well as followers of every other religion. Said producer Philip Roger Roy, Think Catskills comedy with jokes, songs, stories, skits, and routines. The humor is reminiscent of the great Jewish comedians from Buddy Hackett and Alan King to Tom Lehrer, and more. Warning: adult (bawdy) humor. Not for audiences under 21.
