Sixth & I and SpeakeasyDC present the third annual night of funny, poignant, powerful, and peculiar autobiographical stories about all things Jewish, not-so-Jewish, and wanna-be Jewish on the second night of Chanukah. Storytellers include:

Adam Ruben, a stand-up comedian and rabbi impersonator.

Ophira Eisenberg, one of New York Magazine’s “ten new comedians that funny people find funny.”

Rabbi Jonathan Roos, Senior Rabbi at Temple Sinai.

Amy Saidman, SpeakeasyDC’s artistic executive director, is a two-time recipient of the artist fellowship award from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities. Amy has survived Camp Moshava, High School in Israel, and Aish haTorah.

Hannah Seligson is a journalist and the author of A Little Bit Married: How to Know When it’s Time to Walk Down the Aisle or out the Door and New Girl on the Job: Advice from the Trenches.

Jerome Copulsky, Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Religion and Director of Judaic Studies at Goucher College.

Yevgeniy Kirpichevsky is a research scientist, storytelling virgin, and congenitally bad Jew.
