Doors Open 7pm Show: 8pm Saturday June 25th. Comedians Joey Novick, STEVE YOUNG, and DAVE KOENIG each perform a standup set designed to recall the kind of comedy often performed at the resorts in the Catskills Mountains in New York.The Borscht Belt from the 1940s to the 1960s ---- the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York was THE place to be for the Jewish community in the Northeast. Each summer, families would visit one of the many hotels in the region for relaxation, cultural camaraderie, food (endless amounts of food!), and COMEDY entertainment.Out of this crazy mishegoss grew what we now know as stand up comedy. Aspiring comics learned their craft in the Catskills, which soon became a laboratory for modern comedy.Superstars such as Jerry Lewis, Mel Brooks, Buddy Hackett, Carl Reiner, Mal Z. Lawrence, Jerry Stiller, Danny Kaye, Lenny Bruce, Sid Caesar all got their start at these legendary resorts, learning what worked — and what didn’t — and how they could make their own mark. They started out as tummlers, and became comedy legends!So, schlepp back in time to comedy in the Catskill Mountains with The Borscht Belt - grab a sandwich, and enjoy laughs and a nosh!Steve Young is an award-winning TV writer who wrote for television sitcoms like Boy Meets World, Smart Guy, HBO’s Crashbox as well as The Tonight Show. A comedy veteran and regular at LA's Comedy Store, Steve has opened for comedy greats such as Jay Leno, Jerry Seinfeld and Eddie Murphy.Dave Konig has made appearances on Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Crashing , The Blacklist, and The Enemy Within. He is also the author of a novel, Good Luck Mr. Gorsky, about "1980s, pre-Giuliani New York in all its gritty, sleazy splendor." Dave has appeared in comedy clubs, on cruise ships, and in the Catskills throughout his career. He toured the U.S. in the stand-up comedy revue Pastrami On Rye With Mayo. HOST: JOEY NOVICK has been a camp counselor, editorial director, attorney, busboy, radio show host, professional speaker, child actor and an elected official in New Jersey - but not necessarily in that order.His solo show, "Jewishish, an Oy Story" was noted by the New Jersey Jewish News that "...Novick offers a kind of loving embrace for the unique dynamics (and dysfunctions) recognizable in Jewish families and the paradoxes in Jewish family values, using his own life as fodder, as many comedians do."Tickets include: admission to the show and a boxed dinner by The Borscht Belt.
