As the Matzo Ball Turns ~ The Musical is based on a book by Jozef Rothstein (www.asthematzoballturns.com). The tagline for the book is “An aspiring actors ten year encounter with hit men, celebrities, and old Jewish ladies. Emmy Winner and Former Editor of Rolling Stone Magazine, Robert Wallace, called the book “Day of the Locust with a side order of noodle kugel.” He went on to say, “It is a gonzo ten-year journey–in turns side-splittingly funny and heart wrenchingly sad–into the dark heart of the entertainment and restaurant business, seen through the jaundiced eyes of an aspiring actor turned waiter. This memoir will be chicken soup for the soul for anyone, anywhere, who has ever asked the eternal question, “Lord, how long must I wait?” The live show opened in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania in January 2017 after four years of pre-production and has been a labor of love. The show has moved to three different cities seeking the right talent for this unique and wildly entertaining dramedy. Recently, the Original Cast CD has been released to the public and the production team is aiming for a New York City run after performing in the 2017 Philly Fringe Festival. We hope to see you at the show!!!
