Comedy meets chutzpah in this special Awards Buzz conversation, where Sari Cohen sits down with two queens of clever — Monica Piper and Wendy Liebman — to talk punchlines, friendship, and the fine art of turning life’s chaos into laughter. Between them, they’ve written for some of TV’s most iconic sitcoms, ruled comedy stages coast to coast, and now they’re teaming up for one unforgettable night at the Saban Theatre.
On Sunday, November 9, the Beverly Hills stage transforms into a laughter sanctuary as Monica Piper brings her smash off-Broadway hit “Not That Jewish” to Los Angeles — joined by Wendy Liebman, who opens the evening with her signature wit and wordplay. It’s all part of a new era of dynamic programming from Geanie Galinson, who stepped into her role as Associate Executive Director–Director of Events for the Temple of the Arts / The Beverly Hills Performing Arts Center / Saban Theatre earlier this year. For her first big project, she’s delivering an evening that promises heart, humor, and a few well-timed kvetches.
