Mel Brooks: The 2,000-Year-Old Man at 100
Saturday, November 21, at 7:30pm

Doors open at 7:00pm

Few entertainers have had a more totemic footprint in our culture than Mel Brooks. In the 1960s and 70s, he revolutionized the art of movie comedy with a maverick and uniquely Jewish sensibility that took aim at anyone and everyone, and made absurdity chic and cathartic. In our current climate of wokeness and cancel culture, what does the younger generation make of a figure like Mel Brooks?

Please join Joe Frankel, filmmaker and educator, for a provocative conversation about the state of comedy today. Celebrate the legacy of Mel Brooks at 100 with highlights from his films, including Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles and Spaceballs.

Members: $20
Non-Members: $30

Wine, cheese and desserts will be served.
