Join Zalmen Mlotek, the Artistic Director of the country’s only National Yiddish-Theater Folksbiene, in a multi-media Hysterical and Historical Edu-tainment about the Yiddish Song with interactive audience participation! Hailed as the "runaway hit" of the Berkeley Jewish Music Festival, this elegant piece by Zalmen Mlotek celebrates the Jewish musical accent in American theater. From Yiddish theater and operetta to the wine cellars of Romania, you will hear humorous vaudeville ballads, backstage renditions of Fiddler on the Roof, the originals of klezmer music, and a special Yiddish-English tribute to Gilbert and Sullivan. And introducing rising star of the Yiddish stage Daniela Rabanni
