Comedy Spotlight
Enjoy an evening of stand-up comedy presented by the subject of Coexistence, My Ass!—the indelible, brilliant, and hilarious Noam Shuster-Eliassi—and friends. Noam Shuster Eliassi is an activist-comedian who writes and performs in Arabic, English and Hebrew (with a touch of Farsi), frequently touching upon her experience growing up in “Oasis of Peace” (Neve Shalom/Wahat al-Salam), a mixed community where Palestinians and Jews live together by choice. Her satirical videos have gone viral throughout the Arab world. In 2019, Noam became the first Jewish performer to play the Palestine Comedy Festival. Her one-woman show “Coexistence, My Ass!” was developed at Harvard University and received a four-star review at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
