Über diesen Titel

 Annie Korzen's solo extravaganza is a sophisticated celebration of womanhood, from the Bronx to Beverly Hills. Through hilarious and often poignant tales and songs, Korzen (Doris Klompus on Seinfeld) creates 40 characters to serve up the comical trials and tribulations of being female and Jewish in America. But the universality of her stories of courtship, career, marriage and motherhood, of family and friendship also tell what it's like growing up female and ________ (fill in the blank with any ethnicity.) Brimming over with passion, humor and irony, Korzen is a Jackie Mason with soul who takes us on an odyssey that slices through tired stereotypes, creating an equal-opportunity entertainment!Annie Korzen began her career as an actress-writer in New York's Off-Broadway scene at places like Off Center Theater, La Mama, and Jewish Repertory Theater. She also worked in films (Tootsie, Stardust Memories, and others). Annie was a guest on Oprah, having suggested the topic: "Ethnic Men Who Reject Their Own Women." In Los Angeles, Annie played Doris Klompus on Seinfeld. She also has been on Coach, Mad About You, L. A. Law, ER and many other TV shows. Annie has started doing humorous commentaries on NPR's Morning Edition.©2003 Annie Korzen (P)2003 Annie Korzen

Beschreibung von Audible

This staff pick for "Yenta Unplugged, or Excuse Me, I'm Talking" needs a disclaimer up front: I feel a little strange about recommeding an audio drama in which I am impersonated to comic effect by my own mother! But the bottom line is that a lot of people have enjoyed the show and I am one of them, even though I still think Annie could work on perfecting how I talk and act! Seriously, many people have asked me if all the things described in this show are true, and indeed they are. But most importantly this show delivers a lot of laughs, as well as a universal message of acceptance, maternal love, and secular humanism. So help me with my parents' retirement fund and listen to this play! (Jonathan, Director of Public Relations)
