THE JACKIE MASON MUSICAL: A COMEDY
Jackie Mason lives again in this hilarious play based on a true story with love-child Sheba Mason and a riotously funny cast.
The show features Jackie’s striking look-alike Ian Wehrle, real life daughter comic, Sheba Mason, and a compelling cast of characters.
**2 hours, including intermission**
With book, music and lyrics by Ginger Reiter (Sheba Mason’s mother), The “soaring” musical score features original songs like “Ode to the Early Bird Special”, “The Finger”, and “I Never Met This Yenta”.
Set in Miami Beach 1977-1987, the story encapsulates the charm and nostalgia of that era, as Jackie’s romantic misadventures clash with his ascension to Broadway stardom, and Sheba is born.
At the conclusion of the show Sheba answers the question many have asked
since Jackie Mason passed away in August 2021:
“Did he leave you anything in his will?”
