Jessica Kirson Interview

A couple months ago I sang Jessica Kirson’s praises, ranking her as one of my favorite Jewish comics. She’s brash, bold and at the top of the game with her flat out hilarious characters. Now, she’s returning for a couple night headlining gig at Gotham Comedy Club. Book your tickets now for June 22nd and 23rd at 8:00 pm and prepare to laugh the night away.
