What is KVETCH?

Kvetch is an hour long show celebrating the diversity of the Jewish community through laughter. Audiences will recognize themselves and their shared experiences in both performers, leaving the show feeling more connected—to one another and to the broader community.​ The show is PG-rated but designed for adults and focuses on humor and storytelling rather than promoting any specific religious observance or domestic or international political viewpoints. More about Erik. More about Carmiya.

“Carmiya Weinraub is hilarious! She entertained us with non-stop zingers that had everyone in stitches. She touched on things we could all relate to – kids, committees and foods we love. Nothing but rave reviews.”
