Easily offended? Think that comedy should have some restrictions when it comes to the punchlines? Do you consider yourself “woke”? Then three-man comedy show Jew Man Group might get you worked up, as one of the first lines you’ll hear when the show starts is this is the place “where woke comes to die.”
Indeed, the comedy show, inspired by Jewish comics like Mel Brooks, Rodney Dangerfield and Billy Crystal, pushes the envelope in content, but what’s unexpected is that the experience rings too true at times and gets one agreeing that comedy really should be a no-holds-barred take on society.
The 70-minute show gives a one-two punch on today’s headline-making politics and combines it with hysterical commentary on everyday life including marriage, sex, kids and work. The stand-up is mixed with ventriloquism, skits, impersonations, musical parodies and audience participation.
The three comedians—Rick Michel, Rich Natole and Joel Leder—each possess biting wit and impeccable comedic timing, and each get their moment to shine solo in the spotlight, but it’s a laugh riot when the three join up for the group bits.
The throwback comedy comes from a time when race, religion, sexual and political preference, and economic and social status was ripe for the comedic picking—so come with an open mind and remember: The show is all in good (and funny) fun!
