In the opinion of many critics, the the Sid Caesar programs were the funniest and most creative shows in theSid-Caesar-Quotes-2 history of television comedy. The sheer talent of Sid Caesar is overwhelming – as  Carl Reiner, his writer and co-star put it:

“Sid Caesar set the template for everybody,” Reiner told KNX-AM in Los Angeles. “He was without a doubt the greatest sketch comedian-monologist that television ever produced. He could ad lib. He could do anything that was necessary to make an audience laugh.”

For all his accolades, however, Sid Caesar was a deeply troubled man who saw a brilliant career waste away in the wake of his addictions. It took intensive self-therapy and personal courage for him to turn his life around. And did he ever!  By the time of his death he was once again rewarded with the respect and reverence his comic genius deserved. This unique multimedia presentation will explore all sides of Sid Caesar. You will laugh uproariously at the rare video clips and find yourself mesmerized by the intense struggle of the king of Comedy.
