Comedy Night at the JCC Saturday, November 19, 2016 Learn about
that Shaped Modern Comedy
From the Marx Brothers to The Simpsons, Richard Pryor to Amy Schumer: 100 bits, sketches and one-liners that changed humor forever. The oldest joke on record, a Sumerian proverb, was first told all the way back in 1900 B.C. Yes, it was a fart joke. The joke helped pave the way for almost 4,000 years of toilet humor. It’s just a shame we’ll never know the name of the Sumerian genius to whom we owe Blazing Saddles.
