Some Styles of Masculinity is a monologic journey that unfolds in three interconnected chapters over three consecutive evenings, entitled: Rock Star, Rabbi, and Comedian. Under the guise of The Benjamin Zev Show—equal parts television variety show, Catskill stand-up, bar mitzvah midrash, and punk-rock listening session—Bordowitz masterfully improvises each chapter’s preoccupations with a stack of reference books at the ready. Together, the three evenings present a humorous and heartfelt vision of Bordowitz’ complicated masculinity as an artist, writer, and cultural observer.
