Year's Eve with the best Jewish comedians, and a nosh. You'll laugh

Doors Open
7pm; Show: 8pm
Jewish
Comedians Joey Novick, Bob Greenberg, and Scott Blakeman each
perform a standup set designed to recall the kind of comedy often
performed at the resorts in the Catskills Mountains in New York.
The Borscht
Belt from the 1940s to the 1960s—the Catskill Mountains in
upstate New York was THE place to be for the Jewish community in
the Northeast. Each summer, families would visit one of the many
hotels in the region for relaxation, cultural camaraderie, food
(endless amounts of food!), and COMEDY entertainment.
Out of this
crazy mishegoss grew what we now know as stand up comedy. Aspiring
comics learned their craft in the Catskills, which soon became a
laboratory for modern comedy.
Superstars
such as Jerry Lewis, Mel Brooks, Buddy Hackett, Carl Reiner, Mal Z.
Lawrence, Jerry Stiller, Danny Kaye, Lenny Bruce, Sid Caesar all
got their start at these legendary resorts, learning what worked —
and what didn’t — and how they could make their own mark. They
started out as tummlers, and became comedy legends!
So, schlepp
back in time to comedy in the Catskill Mountains with The Borscht
Belt—grab a sandwich, and enjoy laughs and a nosh!
BOB GREENBERG starred as
"Morty" in The National Tour of OLD JEWS TELLING
JOKES—and knows hundreds of the top Jewish Jokes!!

the Gotham Comedy Club. He has been featured on SATURDAY NIGHT
LIVE, LETTERMAN, CONAN, THE NEXT BEST THING and PRIMETIME LIVE. He
has had roles on VINYL (HBO), THE CHARACTERS (NETFLIX) and LAW
& ORDER.
SCOTT
BLAKEMAN has performed his contemporary Jewish humor around the world including
the Bar Mitzvah Show at the Montreal 'Just For Laughs Festival',
the Jewish Historical Museum in Amsterdam, and Kung Pao Kosher
Comedy in San Francisco.
Scott
interviewed Freddie Roman in Catskills on the Hudson at the Museum
of Jewish Heritage. He headlined Radical Menshes and Maniacs: New
Jewish Humor and Music at La Mama Theater. Scott performs regularly
at New York's 92nd St. Y, and the New York Friars Club, where he is
a member. He is a sought after comedian for shows at Temples,
JCC's, Hillels and private events.
JOEY NOVICK
is the creator of "Jewish Joke of the Day", social media
viewed by thousands each month.
His solo
show, Jewishish,
an Oy Story, was noted
by the New Jersey Jewish News that "...Novick
offers a kind of loving embrace for the unique dynamics (and dysfunctions)
recognizable in Jewish families and the paradoxes in Jewish family
values, using his own life as fodder, as many comedians do."
Tickets

Borscht Belt delicatessen!
