David Rose: Our Hebrew Friend

My great grandfather was a world-famous Jewish comedian in the early 20th century. He was known to the public as 'Our Hebrew Friend' and performed at the Royal Variety Show and on the BBC. A century later, here I am in the same job, asking the same questions. What does it mean to be a comedian, to be Jewish, and to be both at the same time? A show about legacy, identity and finding your place in the world. 'Cheekily transgressive... he's an accomplished comic' (Chortle, 2024).
