“Let My People Laugh!” – the Jewish community is taking part in the UK’s Live Comedy Day!
The UK comedy industry has designated Wednesday 1st April 2026 as Live Comedy Day (www.livecomedyday.co.uk) and has been encouraging audiences everywhere to attend one of the hundreds of events occurring across the country that evening. Given that this also coincides with the first night of Passover, when Jewish families around the world traditionally gather for the Seder, this would make it a challenge for our community to fully participate in this event. In collaboration with the team behind Live Comedy Day, comedian Rachel Creeger has gathered a group of Jewish stand-up comics who have donated footage of extracts from their live performances, to be shared as an online clip show on 1st April up until Passover begins. The event will be raising money for the charity Paperweight (www.paperweight.org.uk) which is the Jewish community’s dedicated advice and crisis-support organisation, providing free, confidential and compassionate one-to-one support to people overwhelmed by life’s challenges. Paperweight helps clients with finance and debt issues, family breakdown, mental health, bereavement, benefits, bureaucracy and life administration. Always with discretion and cultural sensitivity, they offer clarity and stability at moments of personal crisis, ensuring no one has to manage complex challenges alone.
Tickets contain a link to find the show online from 12.01am on 1st April until Passover starts as well as a link to The Paperweight Trust’s donation page. Along with material from Rachel Creeger herself, the show features clips generously donated by Jewish comedians Bennett Arron, Debra Tammer, Mark Maier, Aalex Mandel-Dallal, Henry Churniavsky, Suzie Deprelli, Mike Capozzola, Erin Hunter, Eli James, Kate Pinchuk and Levy Lupu.
