Laugh Along with Larry Donsky at the Ocean County Library Jackson Branch

originally published: 12/09/2024

(JACKSON TOWNSHIP, NJ) -- Could you use a little laughter to start 2025? How about lots of it? Let comedian Larry Donsky show you why "Laughter is the Best Medicine" at the Ocean County Library Jackson Branch on Saturday, January 4, 2025. The event begins at 2:00pm.

The Jackson resident’s spot-on delivery and timing keeps audiences in stitches non-stop. Larry has opened for seasoned performers including singers Vincent Talarico and Suzi Cruz and comedians Bobby Collins and Sarge.

Fans know Larry’s uproarious star turn in the original 2009 Old Jews Telling Jokes and his recent performances for the Jewish Federation of Northern New Jersey, Monmouth County Library and Jewish Heritage Museum of Monmouth County.

Larry is also a heart attack survivor and an ardent advocate of cardiac health. His experience and recovery is chronicled on Centrastate Healthcare System’s website.
