“TEVYE SERVED RAW (Garnished with Jews)” - Show with Allen Rickman and YelenaShmuelson
The show is a fun evening made up of Sholem Aleichem stories: both Tevye material and some of his straight comedy stuff. It is performed by our friends Allen Rickman and Yelena Shmuelson. The performance is in English and Yiddish-with-English supertitles.
A wonderfully entertaining show that at the same time gives a real sense of Jewish life in Eastern Europe back when many of us lived there. The show runs through August 14. For information and tickets: TevyeServedRaw.com
