Presented by Praia Entertainment Group. One of the longest-running one-man comedies in theatrical history, freshly baked for 2024! There are new stories and new chaos, bringing some to call it “Seinfeld meets Maniscalco.” Steve Solomon gets it. The world’s gone wacko these days. Everyone could use a good laugh. Or three hundred of them. And the greatest universal subject to laugh about is… dysfunctional families. That is why EVERYONE simply adores “My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish and I’m in Therapy”.  And you don’t have to be Jewish or Italian to love it! This hilarious PG-rated one-man show stars the incredibly talented Steve Solomon, who takes you on a wild and entertaining journey through his life, humorously navigating the challenges and absurdities of growing up in a mixed Jewish-Italian household.  With his impeccable comedic timing, delightful dialects, wacky sound effects and witty storytelling, Steve brings to life a variety of colorful characters we all know, love and tolerate from our own families, each with their own quirks and foibles…like Uncle Paulie who thinks KY Jelly is marmalade from Kentucky!  You’ll recognize your own parents, uncles, aunts and 2nd cousins twice removed as Steve shares relatable experiences, family anecdotes, cultural clashes and stories about everything from doctors and air travel to Costco! Almost a million people have seen this three time award-winning comedian known for delivering belly laughs and sheer joy.  Call it “SEINFELD meets MANISCALCO.”
