The Jackie Mason Musical: A Comedy

Theatre

Non Union

Los Angeles

Synopsis:

Jackie Mason (comic legend) lives again in this riotously funny comedy based on a true story. The show features Jackie's real life daughter comedian Sheba Mason, his striking look-alike Ian Wehrle, and a quirky cast of characters. The “Soaring musical score" (Around-Town News) features the original songs: “Ode to the Early Bird Special”, “The Finger”, and “I Never Met This Yenta”. The story takes place in Miami Beach 1977-1988 encapsulating the nostalgic charm of that era, as Jackie's romantic misadventures clash with his ascension to Broadway stardom, and Sheba is born.
