| Q: |
What's
Moo Jew Comedy™? |
| A: |
Jewish comedians |
| |
performing at Christmas time |
| |
at a
Chinese Restaurant. |
Has a new Jewish Christmas-time tradition taken hold? Any respectable
Jew would clearly answer, "And why not?"
Ancient Hebrew texts and any Rabbi worth his or her salt will confirm that
Jews have congregated for centuries at Chinese restaurants on Christmas Eve.
Moo Jew Comedy thus provides comedy in Jews' natural habitat. "Why should
anyone have to schlep to a comedy show, when we can bring it right to
them?" shrugged the show's producer, Jason P. Lorber.
Non-Jews are welcome to Moo Jew Comedy™, especially loud ones. Worried that
some non-Jewish audience members might miss a joke or two, Lorber has a
plan, "We'll have Jewish interpreters who will shrug after each joke and
say, 'You should have come last year.'"
Come to the fifth annual Moo
Jew Comedy™. It's what Jews do at Christmas time.
