Old Jews Telling Jokes reviews

I've seen two reviews that have popped up on line so far, one by Matthew Murray and the other in Variety and both are outright raves. Variety says, "this one could run forever."

NYTimes is thumbs up too.

Almost everyone who saw it in previews.

Well, the show is now a Times Critic's Pick, so I'd think that their critic liked it a bunch. Matthew Murray at Talking' Broadway, who is someone I think tends to be very tough, gave it an absolute rave.

While the target audience at this early stage clearly fits into a well defined demographic, I think that the marketing will eventually jreach out to the more general audience, with a theme similar to the old ad, "You don't have to be Jewish to to love Levy's Jewish rye.". Or something to that effect.

Another excellent review, this one on theatermania.com.

"Throughout the proceedings, the gags are, as often as not, more than gags. They're compact comic sketches, and director Marc Bruni makes certain every amusing speech and every character nuance is mined for its full potential."
