What's so funny about two American minorities that have slavery, the KKK, and chicken livers in common? You’ll find out in this hilarious two-actor play on the history and absurdity of prejudice and racism. This fast-paced show combines sketches, improvisations, puppets, a game show, and audience participation. We are touring the United States and Canada. The Jewish Advocate calls us “entertaining and enlightening.” The Courant wrote, "Matzah and Motown meet Avenue Q!”
