Shabbat, Mar 21st 6:00p to 9:00p
Join TBS as we put the funny in fundraising with Live From TBS - It's Saturday Night! Tickets include full dinner and drink ticket, access to our silent auction, and a terrific comedy show featuring 3 comedians! This is sure to be a night to remember, all while performing the mitzvah of raising funds for TBS! Our lineup for the evening includes: PAT MCCOY was voted in high school “Most Likely to Recede". He refuses to grow up, which might explain his knack for turning everyday absurdities into sharp, self-deprecating comedy. Whether he's poking fun at himself or the ever-evolving chaos of modern life, Pat brings a laid-back honesty that audiences instantly connect with. He's shared the stage with comedy icons like Brian Regan, George Lopez, and the late, great Robin Williams. ADAM FELSON is a local comic and a member of the Improv Troupe "Withering Scorn". He can be seen at various shows in the Bay Area. JEFF APPLEBAUM made his national TV debut on CBS as a comedian on the “Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson.” He has also appeared on Comics Unleashed and ComedyTV, Byron Allen’s nationally syndicated Entertainment Studios program, ABC-TV, America’s Got Talent on NBC, and has opened for and performed with comic legends Robert Klein, Mort Sahl, Richard Lewis, Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, Kevin Pollak, Elayne Boosler, Jimmy “JJ” Walker, and more. His DryBar Comedy Special was released in 2020, and he’s also a frequent guest on KGO Radio, AM810 in San Francisco, CA.
