Legendary comic Jeff Ross returns home for his long-awaited Broadway debut in Take A Banana For The Ride—a hilarious, heartfelt one-man show about laughing through the pain, the importance of having thick skin and the vengeful pleasures of a Jewish comic owning a German dog. This 90-minute performance is the result of a 30-year journey in comedy: a cathartic mix of dangerous jokes, touching family stories and songs that stay with you long after the curtain falls. No two shows are exactly alike, but each reveals the Roastmaster General at his most unguarded—raw, reflective and ridiculously funny. It’ll be your most emotional night at the theater since Mufasa died in The Lion King! (Oh no, did we ruin it?)
