“Jewish Humor: Oy Vey!” SARASOTA INSTITUTE OF LIFETIME LEARNING
Jack Benny’s facial expressions were sufficient to make a crowd roar with
laughter. When he and his other Jewish comedic friends, including George
Burns and the Marx Brothers, were excluded from the local country club,
they formed their own. Famous as a comedian and violinist in vaudeville,
radio, television and film, Benny’s career spanned over 60 years. Benny Global Issues
met his wife Sadie at a Passover Seder in 1922, and she joined him in his & Music Mondays
act for the rest of his life. This class, presented by the Al Katz Center,
begins at 11:00 a.m. via Zoom. Cost: $10 per day or $50 per month for all SILL celebrates 50 Years
