More Music, Comedy, and Jews Planned

Hadassah, Lorber Team Up Again for
"So…Jew Live in Vermont?!"

There's no shortage in Vermont of comedy, music, and Jews. For the second year in a row, Hadassah will team up with comedian Jason P. Lorber to produce, "So…Jew Live in Vermont?"

In the style of "The Tonight Show," the stage show will feature live music, standup comedy, and interviews with plucky and prominent Jews living in Vermont.

"I'm so happy I could plotz," said comedian and show producer Jason P. Lorber, when asked how he felt about last year's production, which featured Governor Madeleine Kunin dancing the latke dance around a table along with a Jewish organic farmer, and artist. "When I spoke with Hadassah, we agreed to do it again and continue celebrating Vermont's diverse and colorful Jewish community."

Lorber will host "So…Jew Live in Vermont," and interview Vermont Secretary of State Deborah Markowitz; CEO / venture socialist Paul Millman of Chroma Technology Corp.; actress, producer, and environmentalist Kathryn Blume; and filmmaker Jeff Farber. Also featured will be music duo Gigi Weisman and Joni AvRutick.

The event benefits Hadassah, a Jewish women's organization. It begins at 5 p.m. on Sunday, March 29 at the new Main Street Landing Film House at 60 Lake Street, on the Burlington waterfront. Tickets will be available for $25 cash at the door.

Time Magazine commends the Hadassah hospital (Ein Kerem), a beneficiary of “So…Jew Live in Vermont?!”

"Though Hadassah Ein Kerem has handled more victims of terrorist attacks than any other Israeli hospital, it stands as a model of integration in the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians."
