  • Indecent by Paula Vogel

    San Francisco Playhouse and Co-produced with Yiddish Theatre Ensemble,

    By: Victor Cordell - Oct 01st, 2022

    The genesis of “Indecent” begins in Warsaw in 1906.  Young author Sholem Asch has written a Yiddish play called “God of Vengeance,” which acts as a play-within-a-play in “Indecent,”  as scenes from the former appear throughout the latter.  Portrayed passionately and with grand gestures by Billy Cohen, Asch entreats other writers to participate in a table reading.  After the reading, I. L. Peretz, Warsaw’s most distinguished Yiddish author, tells Asch to burn the play.  Despite contentiousness and only a modicum of support, a Yiddish language company produces the play.

    Rossini's Otello Features Lawrence Brownlee

    By: Susan Hall - Sep 27th, 2022

    Opera Philadelphia brings Gioachino Rossini's Otello to the stage. Beethoven told Rossini that he should stay away from serious drama. It was not in his nature.
