Jerry Lewis at Saban Theatre

Tonight’s show is a retrospective of Jerry Lewis’s life, as told through jokes, stories and amazing film clips.  He made his show business debut at the age of 5, began a show business partnership with Dean Martin in 1946, an association that saw both skyrocket to fame.  For ten years Martin and Lewis sandwiched sixteen money making films between nightclub engagements, personal appearances, recording sessions, radio shows, and television bookings. Their last film together was "Hollywood or Bust" (1956). On July 25th of that year the two made their last nightclub appearance together at the Copacabana, exactly ten years to the day since they became a team.

From then on, Jerry Lewis has been constantly on the move. His film career skyrocketed, and he recorded several records and albums; one of them "Rock-A-Bye Your Baby with a Dixie Melody", released by Decca Records, has sold nearly four million copies to date. Additionally, Lewis plunged into screen writing, directing, producing as well as acting.

Lewis has scored many triumphs for his work on stage and screen, both in front of and behind the camera.  Among his many awards, Lewis received the highest honor ever bestowed upon an entertainer when he was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of his tireless efforts in the fight against Muscular Dystrophy.
