Photo Coverage: OLD JEWS TELLING JOKES Opens Off-Broadway

The new off-Broadway show OLD JEWS TELLING JOKES began performances on Tuesday May 1 and opened yesterday, May 20, at The Westside Theatre. BroadwayWorld was on hand for the opening and brings you photo coverage below.

Created by Peter Gethers and Daniel Okrent, OLD JEWS TELLING JOKES is directed by Marc Bruni and showcases five actors in a revue that pays tribute to and reinvents classic jokes of the past and present. Think you've heard them all before? Not this way. The show also features comic songs -- brand new and satisfyingly old - as well as tributes to some of the giants of the comedy world and to OldJewsTellingJokes.com, the website created by Sam Hoffman that inspired the show. If you've ever had a mother, visited a doctor, or walked into a bar with a priest, a rabbi and a frog - OLD JEWS TELLING JOKES will sit in the dark, give you a second opinion, and ask you where you got that.

OLD JEWS TELLING JOKES features Bill Army (Reuben), Marilyn Sokol (Bunny), Todd Susman (Nathan), Audrey Lynn Weston (Debbi) and Lenny Wolpe (Morty).
