My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish and I’m in Therapy

by Jane Rosenstein

This  comedy writen by Steve Solomon, playing at The Colony Theatre in Burbank, California is very enjoyable.  Having run for 2 years in New York City it is on tour at the Colony Theatre in Burbank, California until June 25, 2017.

Peter Fogel, the actor, keeps the audience entertained for 90 minutes. He relates well with the audicnce; It is helpful to have a knowlege  of Jewish culture in order to understand some of the jokes. He tells the audience about his Italian mother and Jewish father who have driven him to seek therapy.

When Alyce Schultz and I saw  the play, we noticed that the crowd could not stop laughing.  

At the end of the monologue, Peter Fogel told the crowd that he was selling cassettes so that they could hear the performance again and part of the proceeds would go to help disabled veterans.
