Standup comics Cory Kahaney (NBC's "Last Comic Standing," creator, The Jap Show), Jackie Hoffman (Broadway's Hairspray), Cathy Ladman (HBO's "One Night Stand"), and Jessica Kerson ("The Tonight Show with Jay Leno") will all take part in The J.A.P Show: Jewish American Princesses of Comedy.
Press notes bill the show as "Four of today's funniest female comics salute the trailblazing and treasured pioneers of comedy with their own zany stories and hilarious stand up. Kvetching about husbands, family, sex and weight issues, these "princesses of comedy" prove that the stuff cracking-up Bubby and Zayde in the schtetl is still pretty darn funny today."
