Irreverent Australian comic Jim Jefferies, known for his love of beer, drugs and sex, is coming to Israel.
He’s currently on tour with his one-man show, “Freedumb,” and will perform on June 6 in Tel Aviv’s Shlomo Group Arena (Drive In Arena).
The comedian, famed for his provocative humor that lacks sympathy for most subjects including himself, first became known in Australia before heading to England and then the US, where he now lives.
No topic is sacred for Jefferies, who has tackled gun control, religion, airplane etiquette, therapy and marriage in some of his more memorable stand-up routines.
In the US, he’s had several one-man TV specials, including an HBO special “I Swear to God,” and a Comedy Central show, “Alcoholocaust.”

We can't do this work alone.
The war with Iran has been draining for all of us in Israel. But when I heard about a high casualty incident – ballistic missile impacts in Arad and Dimona that left nearly 200 people wounded – I drank a cup of coffee, packed a bag, and headed south.
There, I spoke with Shilgit, the head of an after-school program for underprivileged youth. Standing outside her destroyed center, Shilgit said it was a miracle that no children were hurt and spoke about the community coming together in the hours since.
As a Times of Israel reporter, I’m committed to telling stories of resilience like Shilgit’s. But my colleagues and I can't do this alone. If you value work like this, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to keep real human reporting like this going.
