The Matt Nelson Quartet and Yiddish Theater: A Love Story Spend the evening in style with scrumptious nibbles, the oft-lauded and frightingly talented Matt Nelson Quartet, and finish it of with a bang with the tender, vivacious, and above all hilarious film, Yiddish Theater: A Love Story.
The Food: Not your bubbe’s cooking – exotic and savory delicacies from around the world.
The Music: Sit back and let the Matt Nelson Quartet be your aural masseuse for the night – you won’t be disappointed.
The Movie: Enter the funny larger-than-life world of Yiddish Theater today through this powerful documentary 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. Yiddish Theater: A Love Story, dir. Dan Katzir.
