Reseñas editoriales
Alternative comedy troupe Un-Cabaret presents four hilarious Hebrews, each with a witty and wise take on growing up Jewish. Weaving together scriptural dogma and screaming laughter, Alan Zweibel opens with "The Day I Got Caught Playing with Myself in Hebrew School", a hormone-tinged paean to his teenaged crush on Sarah, Abraham's wife from the Book of Genesis. Elsewhere, Stephen Glass offers a sarcastic send-up of that most grave cultural betrayal, the Jew-Gentile relationship, while Beth Lapides' "The Ish Factor" examines the bewildering cultural duality whereby Jews simultaneously find themselves a distinct ethnic group - oppressed and persecuted - and part of the white majority. Emmy Award winner Rob Cohen closes things out with the tickling tale of how he ditched his own Bar Mitzvah.
