$20 advance (Patron Series $17 only available at Cain Park Ticket Office), $23 day of show. It’s a back roads, clutch-poppin’ jaunt through the states of klezmer, old-time swing, pop music and spoken word. Bert Stratton (aka Klezmer Guy and leader of Yiddishe Cup) reads comedic and nostalgic prose sketches and plays clarinet, accompanied by chauffeur Alan Douglass on vocals and fuel-injected, mood-enhancing piano. This show has no brakes. The airbag is Stratton. And the vehicle: a Ford Tsuris (Yiddish for 'trouble'!).
