A fun, extremely enjoyable, fast-paced, and entertaining comedy farce. Fantastic performances from the entire ensemble and a very unique story makes the entire show a real treat.... full review

In what feels like an unproduced Woody Allen comedy, The "Jewish Priest, The Gangster, & the Magician" is a zany romp set in the late 1930s. Written by Ron Yavnieli and directed by Steven Brandon, the show focuses on a well-meaning Jewish gangster who wants to help his childhood buddy hook up with the woman of his dreams - only to fall in love with her himself. Along the way we cross paths with some American Nazis, an unforgiving Rabbi trying to find a husband for his daughter, and a nasty magician/escape artist called Haversham The Great whose life may be in jeopardy. Filled with laughs, slapstick, and some strong performances, you don't have to be Jewish to love this show - but if you are, you’ll chuckle just a little louder during this up... full review
