A Comic Rabbi for our live program at actual weddings & Bar Mitzvahs
Seeking really terrific actors/comedians to portray a COMIC RABBI character. Casting states: "We perform at actual weddings, bar mitzvahs & other life cycle events. Professional pay & each program is approximately 20-25 minutes in length. MUST HAVE a Catskills/Borsht Belt sensibility a la Billy Crystal, Jackie Mason, etc.. Think of this role as the upbeat, high energy 'social director' at the hotel or bungalow colony! He is our front man. A great actor or stand-up alone will not do, as what's really needed is a melding of both!
Very flexible schedule--if you're not available you don't have to accept a particular gig when offered to you. Also, very easy rehearsal schedule as they will be via Skype or over the phone. Additionally, we have troupes doing this exact prograam in a number of cities throughout the country and in Canada, so if you ever relocate you could very well have a gig waiting for you.
TO BE CONSIDERED: Email your pic, rez & contact number and any links to any videos that would be helpful to: PasProductions@yahoo.com In the subject line write Comic Rabbi- Chicago. ALSO, include in the email info about your comedy background and your knowledge of Jewish Culture. We look forward to receiving your submission!
