Marc Jaffe (Side Effects May Include…)
SIDE EFFECTS MAY INCLUDE…, written by former Seinfeld writer Marc Jaffe , is a one-man show about early onset Parkinson’s disease that explores the idea that sometimes it’s not the disease that changes us, but the side effects. Based on Marc Jaffe’s own experience dealing with his wife Karen’s Parkinson’s diagnosis, he has approached this serious topic with humor and wit. He chooses laughter as a way to cope and educate. His mission is to fund research for a cure for Parkinson’s. Thus, he is donating 10% of the proceeds to “Shaking with Laughter” – an organization set up by Marc and Karen Jaffe in support of the Michael J. Fox Foundation.
