SUMMARY:Interfaith Comedy Show
DESCRIPTION:In times when our communities can feel divided or overwhelmed\, gathering in joy can be a powerful and healing act. Join us for an evening of laughter\, connection\, and community at the Interfaith Comedy Show. \n\n\n\nThis one-of-a-kind event features comedians from six faith traditions\, including Muslim\, Jewish\, Latter-day Saint\, Non-denominational Christian\, Catholic\, and Hindu performers\, each sharing humor rooted in their own lived experience. The guiding principle is simple and deeply respectful: each comedian jokes only about their own faith. The result is an atmosphere of authenticity\, warmth\, and genuine connection\, where we celebrate our differences and laugh together. \n\n\n\nWhether you come for the laughs\, the community\, or simply a night out\, this is a show you’ll want to attend! All are welcome. Ages 16+. \n\n\n\nSponsored by Pozez JCC\, Bethlehem Lutheran Church\, Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington (JCRC)\, and Congregation Olam Tikvah. \n\n\n\nFee: $25 JCC Member/$30 Non-member
