Résumé L'histoire de six des plus grandes comédiennes du siècle dernier : Molly Picon, Fanny Brice, Sophie Tucker, Joan Rivers, Gilda Radner et Wendy Wasserstein. Animé par quatre des femmes les plus drôles d'aujourd'hui et si juives - Judy Gold, Jackie Hoffman, Cory Kahaney et Jessica Kirson - c'est la véritable saga de ce que cela signifie d'être juive, féminine et drôle. Making Trouble: Three Generations of Funny Jewish Women tells the story of six of the greatest female comic performers of the last century — Molly Picon, Fanny Brice, Sophie Tucker, Joan Rivers, Gilda Radner, and Wendy Wasserstein. Hosted by four of today’s funniest women — Judy Gold, Jackie Hoffman, Cory Kahaney, and Jessica Kirson — it's the true saga of what it means to be Jewish, female and funny. "What is it that makes funny Jewish women so funny…and so Jewish? Is it a nose wrinkled just so, accompanied by a devilishly sexy grin or a jolting and sarcastic punch line? Is it the acerbic humor of generations of immigrant and first-generation women who fought for a place in America with their brains and their wit, and at the same time needed to make a living? Making Trouble celebrates three generations who, for all of the reasons above, successfully went from vaudeville and the Yiddish theatre to Broadway, from Ziegfeld’s Follies to Saturday Night Live."
