Next Time Dear God Please Choose Someone Else

Traditional Jewish humour flourished in adversity. Religious persecution and life in the ghetto nurtured its own kind of bitter comedy which, in 20th-century America, has developed into a recognisable and acclaimed style of humour. Arena examines this rich heritage of comic genius and includes contributions from Milton Berle, Jackie Mason, Joan Rivers, and Billy Crystal.
