The Yiddish Queen Lear - Jewish Arts Festival archive

New York in the late 1930's. A once-famous Yiddish actress gives her theatre business over to her three daughters. A story of love, infidelity, betrayal and exile inspired by Shakespeare's King Lear, this new play with music, examines the moment when Jewish East European and American cultures mix on the eve of the holocaust. Pascal shows the clash and connections between two worlds in a vibrant, funny and tragic play with music.
