American Jewish comedian and recovery advocate Chani Lisbon will bring her blend of humour, faith and personal testimony to a special comedy show in Sydney this Sunday evening. During her Sydney visit this week, Lisbon has spoken at several Jewish schools and visited Jewish recovery groups. Her talks avoid simple explanations, instead emphasising personal responsibility, community support and taking recovery one day at a time. Lisbon is now a comedian and motivational speaker who appears at comedy clubs, colleges, Jewish community organisations, rehabilitation facilities and private events. Organisers describe the event as a night of “unapologetic Jewish joy”, offering comedy, company and community connection after a difficult period.
