Yiddish Folk Tales! Klezmer music! Belly Dancing! No, this is not about my recent dating life, but rather it’s a show taking place from April 29th to June 5th at the Santa Monica Playhouse.
They sent me an email asking for a plug and they were just so cute and earnest, how could I say no? Also there’s an old-timey radio element involved, and if anything gets to me, it’s old-timey radio. Here’s what they said: she-devils from the underworld … unintentionally create scandal in the Shtetl – man those ashkenazim are just so darned compelling and exotic! Check it out at the Santa Monica Playhouse Web site.

Thank you for every other informative blog.
As someone who played a dybbuk in the first-ever staging of an original Yiddish version of the hit ABC show “Lost,” I can attest to the fact that often, a she-devil doesn’t even know she’s a devil until someone points at her and yells “SHE-DEVIL!!” Once that happens, drama emerges, and before you can bare your elbow or knee, you’ve created a scandal. Sigh. I know how those Yiddish She-Devils feel, all right.
