Mazl Tov… And Justice For All!
a show by Andrei Munteanu
The production is a comedy set off by the fireworks of Jewish humour and by high-spirited traditional songs. Humour and music - the minimal luggage anyone can carry anywhere. They are also good therapy against the hardships of life, one the Jews have practised at length. Anyone who doubts it should try for themselves, and remember the words of the unrivalled humorist Sholem Aleichem: "Laughter? Laughter is pure health, prescribed by every good doctor!" "Mazl Tov... And Justice For All!" is a sparkling show in which we laugh and enjoy ourselves together, listening to stories old (like good wine) and new, and to Jewish folk songs.
