"Hilarious"—The Boston Globe
"The best way for a Catholic Boy to spend Xmas Eve"—Michael Musto, the Village Voice
"One of the dangers of assembling a comedy show around a common theme is that the humor might end up hitting the same note over and over again. The popular "Nice Jewish Girls Gone Bad" avoids the same fate by showcasing comedians who are pointedly specific but inclusively funny."—The Onion
"Mixing touching themes with humor, raunch, attitude and sexuality makes for a full experience all around."—The Berkshire Eagle
Wholesale Klezmer, Saratoga Springs, NY, Dec 16

Among the featured songs will be a Yiddish/Hungarian medley including a melody for Dovid Melekh Yisroyel that you've likely never heard before a humorous vaudeville song about atoning for one's foibles last brought up to date with new verses in 1990, but suddenly à propos again after the November election Yosl Kurland's version of the classic Yiddish song, Motl der Operayter, about a striking worker killed on the picket line brought up to date with verses about third world sweatshops Badkhones - a traditional wedding jester's humorous advice to a bride in Yinglish a couple of Chanukah songs, of course and plenty of happy and sad, lively and meditative klezmer tunes
