An Hour Abroad: A Comedy Show & Foreign Language Program

About the Show

Celebrate the 2nd night of Chanukah by learning Yiddish!

Over the course of a single hour, Evan Forde Barden and Chris Duffy attempt to teach the crowd a foreign language and take them on a tour of a new culture. Each show features a new language instructor and a celebrity guest comedian. Evan and Chris use hilarious presentations, games, quizzes and even dance to help the audience understand a language more fully. You'll probably walk away speaking a few words. Recurring segments include "Guess What This Sign Says!", "What Noises Do Animals Make?", and "Heckle a Comedian", where we teach the audience to say "very good!" and "try again!" in the language and after each joke, they make a judgement call about which to shout.
