      How 'Jewtopia', from which this was partially gleaned, broke records off-broadway is beyond me. It would have been mildly amusing as a high school offering. No - I take that back. It wouldn't have been; it just wouldn't have been as disappointing. The 'jokes' were stale, the delivery was fair. And in part, I thought it was offensive to Jews and to one other minority group for which a 'politically incorrect' term was used. The production was 90 minutes long; 75 minutes longer than it should have been. Collapse
