Brooklyn Comedy Collective @ The Dog House
Come join for the first of our new series in collaboration with Brooklyn Comedy Collective. Comedian and playwright Reid Pope hosts an array of their favorite “bad Jews” in an evening of jokes and nosh, featuring comedians Michael Abber, Marcia Belsky, Myq Kaplan, and Carson Olshansky. Unkosher Comedy serves as a convenient excuse to tell your nagging family that you celebrated Shabbat, all while having a drink in your hand, enjoying a nice dinner and laughing at some seriously funny Jewish stand-up.
