    Add Review/Comment

    A smash hit on Broadway, where it played for a more than a year and a half, A Jew Grows in Brooklyn is an “engaging, poignant and hilarious” (Palm Beach Post) comedy musical about the search for identity and meaning. Through stories, comedy and music – performed with a live band and including a classic Rock Medley, a multi-instrumental version of Louis Prima’s Sing, Sing, Sing, a selection of Yiddish songs and multi-media video and photos – the show chronicles the life of Jake Ehrenreich, an American-born child of Holocaust survivors. From the streets of Brooklyn and struggle with his family’s past, to the laughter and rebirth of Catskills summers, to his mother and sisters heartbreaking early Alzheimers disease, Jake mesmerizingly recreates his unforgettable journey of discovery and lessons learned.
