A ROMANTIC MUSICAL COMEDY SPOTLIGHTING THE CONFLICTS AND AFFECTIONS OF JEWISH IMMIGRANTS TO AMERICA AND THEIR AMERICAN BORN CHILDREN.
Based on a story by Abraham Cahan Book and Lyrics by Pamela BergerMusic by Hankus NetskyAdditional music by:Joanne Baker & Pamela Berger Director: Avi HoffmanArtistic Director: Pamela BergerChoreographer: Oren KorenblumMusic Director: Mark YorkLighting Designer: Josh Martinez-DavisSet Designer: Qingan ZhangCostume Designer: Quinn BurgessProducer/General Manager: Gabriel Szjanert Cast:Avi Hoffman as AsrielMia Mclain as FloraYochai Greenfeld as ShayaMary Feinsinger as Mrs. Birnbaum Ensemble:Daniel BarrettElmore JamesDaniella Rabbani Sirkin In the tradition of the rollicking old-fashioned American musical comedy, here comes “Imported Bridegroom: The Musical.” Set in Olde New York circa 1900, “Imported Bridegroom: The Musical” recounts the travails of an acquisitive landlord-father who comes to fear that his greedy practices will keep him out of heaven. He is so overcome with anxiety at his other-worldly fate that he feels compelled to return to the Old Country where, at his father’s gravesite, he pleads: “Papa, speak to the Almighty for me and ask Him please to wipe away just a few of my sins.” There, in his ancestral shtetl, he is informed of a shortcut to eternal residence in the better neighborhood of Heaven. He would need to sponsor a brilliant scholar of the Talmud. Finding what seems the perfect candidate, he brings his pious young discovery back to the lower East Side for his ambitious Americanized daughter to marry. After one look at the intense greenhorn scholar, she is appalled. He has nothing in common with the sort of respectable uptown Jewish doctor she has been planning to capture. A musical comedy ensues.

Performed during the week that commemorates Kristallnacht 85 years ago, Silent Tears, The Last Yiddish Tango is based on poems, testimonies and writings of women who survived the Holocaust. The project, which recently reached #1 on World Music Charts Europe, began when Dr. Paula David launched a poetry program to help elderly Holocaust survivors deal with long term trauma from horrific crimes.
Silent Tears, created by Payadora Tango and journalist/producer Dan Rosenberg, also includes works based on Holocaust survivor Molly Applebaum’s diary and memoir, Buried Words.
From inspiring songs about survival to mournful laments, this award-winning program conveys an almost indescribable depth of emotion rarely sung about.

SYNOPSIS: It’s 1985. Ethics professor Philip Hoffman and newly appointed Dean of Students Albert Becker already have a long history. They marched side by side for civil rights, registered voters together during freedom summer, and have maintained a friendship that crosses the boundaries of race, religion and country of birth. Now they work at a small, liberal university, where part of the job is training a new crop of activists. When a star student from the South Bronx – Angela Carter – crosses the administration and invites a controversial speaker to campus, free speech becomes a battle cry, and still festering inequities become impossible to Ignore. GO DOWN, MOSES is a 2021 Jewish Plays Project Finalist in their Regional and National Contests, as well as a semi-finalist for both the Ashland New Plays Festival and the Bay Area Playwrights Festival.

You Can Live If They Let You
2024-09-12 - 2024-09-15 | BCA Plaza Theatre, 539 Tremont St., Boston, MA, 02116, United States
You Can Live If They Let You offers an intimate and engaging look into the life and mind of Rabbi Moshe Waldoks, a beloved figure in the Jewish community and beyond. Known for his wit, wisdom, and deep commitment to cultural preservation, Waldoks is a rabbi, author, humorist, scholar and public speaker. He is best known for co-editing the acclaimed The Big Book of Jewish Humor and for his tenure as the spiritual leader of Temple Beth Zion in Brookline, Massachusetts.
The show is a rich blend of memoir, humor, and philosophical musings, drawing on Waldoks’ unique life experiences. “I am 75 and still alive,” says Waldoks, a child of Holocaust survivors. “This show is a bit of this and a bissel of that; it’s memoirish but not a strict autobiography. I aim to offer a glimpse into my convoluted mind, a place I’m sometimes afraid to venture into after dark.”incorporating Yiddish, a language close to his heart, Waldoks’ performance reflects his deep cultural roots. “Yiddish was more than a language to me—it was a territory, a Yiddishland. I remain a mourner for it,” he notes, highlighting his lifelong dedication to keeping the language and its cultural heritage alive.

Aaron Kula and his Klezmer Company Jazz Orchestra created Yiddish Tangos, fusing Yiddish melodies with tango rhythms, producing a unique and sensuous sound embracing two distinct cultures. During World War II, tango was the rave on both sides of the Atlantic, and Jewish composers added their voices to this popular genre. Combined with Avi Hoffman’s tales of Jewish culture, Klezmer scholar Aaron Kula has arranged Yiddish and Klezmer tunes to tango rhythms. This program, which also features live dancers, brings passion to Yiddish music and appeals to audiences of all ages. “Yiddish Tangos” has been featured at major festivals around the world.

‘Anne Being Frank’, a new play by Ron Elisha, is a total reimagining of the story of Anne Frank. This one-woman show starring Alexis Fishman was performed Off-Broadway to rave reviews. It is a reimagining designed to force us to view an iconic story that we thought we knew through entirely fresh eyes, leading us to question certain dear-held assumptions.
It poses the basic question: Had Anne known precisely what was in store for her and her family at the hands of the Nazis, would she still have written the famous line: ‘In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart’?
The play takes place within three ‘worlds’: The world of the secret annex, where Anne and her family are hiding from their German occupiers – this is the story we all know, though it is now retold in hindsight. The world of the concentration camp – Bergen-Belsen – where Anne and her sister, Margot, ended their days. And an imagined world where Anne goes over the manuscript of her diary with her editor at a publishing house in Manhattan after the war.
But, at great personal cost, she has, with her devastating new insight into the depths of human depravity, rewritten her entire diary, so that she is constantly having to justify her choices to her editor, who dearly wishes to maintain the purity and innocence of the original.

FREE LIVE Concert Performance of 1924 Silent Film “The City Without Jews
2025-01-14 16:00 | Bill Cosford Cinema, University of Miami, 5030 Brunson Drive, Coral Gables, FL, 33146, United States
Join us for a live cine-concert performance of the silent film The City Without Jews (Die Stadt ohne Juden), accompanied by original live music composed and performed by world-renowned klezmer violinist Alicia Svigals and celebrated silent film pianist Donald Sosin. This special event will be held at the Bill Cosford Cinema at the University of Miami on January 14, 2025, at 4:00 PM.
Based on the controversial and best-selling novel by Hugo Bettauer, H.K. Breslauer’s 1924 film adaptation of The City Without Jews (Die Stadt ohne Juden) was produced two years after the publication of the book, only a decade before events depicted in the fictional story became an all-too-horrific reality. Set in the imaginary city of Utopia, the story follows the consequences of an anti-semitic law passed by the National Assembly forcing all Jews to leave the country. Conceived as a dark satire and stylistically influenced by German Expressionism, the film contains starkly realistic and eerily prophetic sequences.
Thought to be lost to history entirely, a partial fragment of the film was discovered in 1991 and a nitrate print with additional footage was restored by the Austrian Film Archive in 2015, making it possible to see this all to relevant film.
