Description: Meet the various generations of Jewish comedy actors, playwrights, and changemakers who are invigorating the way Jewish comedy is expressed. How does the history of Jews in comedy shape their work? What kind of innovations are they introducing to the concept of “Jewish comedy”? Is there even still such a thing? How are they addressing current issues inside and outside the Jewish community through humor? Come laugh, learn and laugh some more. EVENT 4B
