On the night before Santa's big day, stand-up comedian Ray Ellin hosts A Delightfully Jewish Christmas featuring top Jewish comedians. The lineup boasts Lenny Marcus, a festival favorite who has appeared on Comedy Central, MTV and network TV. A multi-talented performer, he has even written for national publications, including UsWeekly and Life and Style. One of New York's hottest young comedians, Modi, will also take the stage. He's been on everything from Last Comic Standing to The Sopranos, and has played leading roles in feature films. Rounding out this hilarious holiday bill is Dan Naturman, whose charming combination of self-deprecation and outright grouchiness has earned him spots on Comedy Central, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman and The Conan O'Brien Show. So leave the old Chinese take-out and a movie combo for another year and spend Christmas Eve in stitches!

Early in his life, A.J. Croce lost his vision as the result of a brain tumor, but between the ages of four and ten partial sight gradually returned to his left eye. During this time period he began to play piano, inspired by the music of blind artists Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder. He started playing professionally at the age of 12 and by age 16 he was a regular at several San Diego nightclubs. He toured with B.B. King at age 18 and released his first solo album the following year. A.J. now has seven albums to his name and has toured with artists as legendary as his father including Carlos Santana, Rod Stewart, Aretha Franklin, Willie Nelson, James Brown and Ray Charles. A great talent in his own right, the younger Croce carries on his father's legacy while paving new musical roads of his own. Learn More

Did I enjoy the show? Let's just say there are no words for how much I laughed, smiled, agreed, related and applauded the comedians, especially Modi. He was amazing! Awesome! The other 2 were very good...but he was just...let's say a combination of Jerry Lewis, Jackie Mason and Howie Mandel all rolled up into one adorable, nice Jewish boy. If only I were 20 years younger...

Laughed our asses off. First time seeing Ray Ellin who is funny, smart, sarcastic.....love him! And Modi i've seen a few times at various venues and he was the reason we all came to this show. I was a fan before but now that i've heard his jewish schtick, which he obviously leaves out of his regular comedy routines....I love him even more. Forget Seinfeld, give this guy his own show.

Marcus has appeared on Comedy Central's Live at Gotham, NBC's Friday Nite, NBC's Louie Anderson Show and MTV's Jim Brewer Show.

Dan Naturman
Dan Naturman began performing stand-up comedy several years ago in, believe it or not, law school. After graduation, he decided to devote himself to stand-up full time. Comedy, he discovered, was his true passion. Besides, his grades were bad and nobody would hire him.

Naturman charming combination of self-deprecation and outright grouchiness has had audiences howling from coast to coast. He is one of New York City's most respected comedians, having done his own special on Comedy Central, as well as multiple appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman and The Conan O'Brien Show.
