With its razor-sharp wit and boundary-pushing humour, Curb Your Enthusiasm has become a cultural phenomenon. But how does Larry David’s masterpiece reflect Jewish identity, challenge stereotypes, and resonate—or not—with audiences worldwide? Comedian and broadcaster Viv Groskop is joined by Paddington and Philomena Cunk writer Joel Morris, author of Be Funny or Die: How Comedy Works and Why It Matters, and Jeremy Dauber, Columbia professor, Mel Brooks biographer and author of Jewish Comedy: A Serious History, for a joyous yet thought-provoking exploration of one of television’s most daring shows.
An event from Jewish Book Week 2025.
