Yiddish Theatre: A Love Story, at The Yiddish Theatre and Klezmer Music Festival

Already Occurred
Wellfleet Library, 55 West Main Street,
Wellfleet, MA 02667

Yiddish Theatre - A Love Story is about a unique Yiddish theater in NY and its survival. A documentary by award winning filmmaker Dan Katzir and producers Ravit Markus and Yael Katzir about the amazing woman who has kept the oldest running Yiddish Theater in America alive. Zypora Spaisman is a Holocaust survivor who conquers all hearts in her passion for art, life and Yiddish.

This heartwarming story of one unique woman's struggle portrays the fight of both an old art form to stay relevant and an old actress to find meaning and a stage in a society that worships youth.

Kenneth Turan of the LA Times called it, "Charming...an irreplaceable record of a life and a movement..."

This event is free, with a suggested donation of $8. This event takes place at the Wellfleet Library - live klezmer music before the film.
