Although set in the London Ghettos at the close of the 18th Century this fable is timeless. In many ways it is the classic Fairtytale - the ambitious young man wants to wed the daughter of the master schnorrer, Manassah. This is complicated by their opposing faiths and like every dedicated and love struck hero he has prove himself in the face of adversity, prejudice and greed to master the fine art of schnorrering and win his love.
