STAYIN’ ALIVE AN ISRAELI COMEDY SHOW
Why do Israelis travel
with sombreros?
What is the Jamaican
solution for the Middle
East?
Why was Little Red
Riding Hood in the news?
And, who will save the
world's top Jewish
hip-hop group?
"Staying Alive" is an Israeli comedy show in English, which
showcases Israeli life in a way you've never seen before.
Noam Jacobson and Gady Weissbart are comedians born and
raised in Israel.
They will show you the Israel you never knew – hilarious,
wacky, blunt and confident.
Using sketches, musical numbers and non-verbal skits,
the show embraces Israel for what it is – a small country,
surrounded by enemies, trying to live a normal life in the
crazy neighborhood called the Middle East, a nation which
provocatively insist on STAYING ALIVE…
