News PHOTO CALL: Old Jews Telling Jokes, With Bill Army, Marilyn Sokol, Lenny Wolpe, Opens Off-Broadway Old Jews Telling Jokes, which is co-created by Peter Gethers and Daniel Okrent, officially opens May 20 following previews that began May 1 at Off-Broadway's Westside Theatre.

Directed by Marc Bruni, the company features Bill Army, Marilyn Sokol, Todd Susman, Audrey Lynn Weston and Lenny Wolpe.

The production, according to press notes, "showcases five actors in a revue that pays tribute to and reinvents classic jokes of the past and present. Think you’ve heard them all before? Not this way. The show also features comic songs — brand-new and satisfyingly old — as well as tributes to some of the giants of the comedy world and to the brilliant raconteurs from OldJewsTellingJokes.com, the website that inspired the show."
