Description: |
Jewish Humor and The Holocaust Amusing? Confusing? Offensive? A Lecture Presentation at Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County, Long Island, New York.
What made us laugh in the old days of Sid Caesar and Milton Berle is a far cry from the jokes and stories told by Larry David, Sarah Silverman and other contemporary comics today. But even if it seems like nothing is really off-limits anymore, do we want to hear Jewish comedians referencing the Holocaust for laughs? Join us on November 28 2018 you'll see why figuring out what's funny can be serious business.
