CLEAN COMEDIANS TO PRESENT COMEDY FOR PEACE! EVENT WILL RAISE FUNDS AND HOPE FOR THE FUTURE OF THE MIDDLE EAST JEWISH RABBI/COMEDIAN AND ISRAELI COMEDIAN TO PERFORM IN LOS ANGELES AND ORANGE COUNTY AUGUST 2ND & 3RD

CLEAN COMEDIANS comedy show featuring nationally-recognized comedians Rabbi Bob Alper and Nazareth. There will be a 30 minute live auction before the program to help raise funds for the non-profit group Seeds of Peace.

(PRWEB) July 24, 2003 -- CLEAN COMEDIANS announced today that they will present Comedy for Peace! featuring comedian Rabbi Bob Alper (Showtime, Good Morning America and Extra) and Israeli-born Arab-American comedian Nazareth" (NBC Nightly News with Tom Brokaw and Comedy Central).

The shows on August 2nd and 3rd will offer non-political fun and laughter starring two funny men from different backgrounds who have become friends. Both shows will be preceded by a 30 minute live auction designed to raise funds for peace in the Middle East. The $49 tickets (or 4 for $160) can be obtained by calling 310-205-3995.

CLEAN COMEDIANS plans to donate $10,000 of the shows profits to Seeds of Peace, the conflict-resolution and coexistence program. Through its International Camp in Maine and at its Center for Coexistence in Jerusalem, participants develop empathy, respect, communication and negotiation skills and hope -- the building blocks for peaceful coexistence. Since 1993, Seeds of Peace has graduated over 2,000 teenagers representing 22 nations, including many Israeli and Palestinian youth from the Middle East.

Adam Christing, event host and president of CLEAN COMEDIANS said:
We have watched the continuing tragedy in the Middle East on the news, and are eager to reach out with our support, laughter and friendship. I hope that Comedy for Peace! will mobilize Southern Californians to join us in our efforts to raise funds for Seeds of Peace. Our business has proven to us that the shortest distance between two people is a smile. Nothing brings people together like laughter."

The events corporate sponsor Phil Liberatore and his company IRS Problem Solvers in La Mirada embraced the event as it supports his own hope for conflict resolution. Mr. Liberatore said, Laughter can sometimes be the best medicine."

Both of the comedians echo those sentiments and know that humor can pull down barriers and begin building bridges not only between Israelis and Palestinians, but all people.

CLEAN COMEDIANS represents entertainers who believe that it doesnt have to be filthy to be funny. The company books stand up comics, impressionists, musicians, professional and motivational keynote speakers, magicians and jugglers primarily for corporations, however special events like this one are open to the public.
