The Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) presents, as part of the 2020 Yiddish Culture Series, and in celebration of the 125th anniversary of the first appearance in print of Sholom Aleichem’s most celebrated character, Tevye the Dairyman, a virtual performance on Zoom, Shalom Sholom!! – Celebrating Sholom Aleichem.
Shalom Sholom!! is a one-man performance, conceived and performed by Bob Spiotto, about Sholom Aleichem, aka the Yiddish Mark Twain, the author and playwright best known for his stories about Tevye the Dairyman that became the basis for Fiddler on the Roof. The performance will include a mixture of music, singing and monologues to capture the world that Sholom Aleichem knew in pre-WWI Europe and Manhattan’s Lower East Side.
This performance is funded in part by Humanities New York.
