CO-PRESENTED WITH
THE ESSENCE
A YIDDISH THEATRE DIM SUM

PRESENTED IN COLLABORATION WITH THE WEITZMAN NATIONAL MUSEUM OF AMERICAN JEWISH HISTORY
DON'T GIVE A RAT'S ASS ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SCHLEMEIL AND A SCHLEMAZEL?
​
THEN THIS IS THE YIDDISH SHOW FOR YOU!
​
Following successful off-Broadway and sold-out New York Fringe runs, this hilarious troupe of the younger generation of Yiddish theatre veterans (i.e., the not-dead ones) is bringing their show to Philly! Witness the entire history of Yiddish theatre, from the sublime to the appalling, in 83 New York Minutes, occasionally interrupted by irrelevant interludes about Yiddish editions of the New Testament or how to curse in Yiddish.
