Aimee Ginsburg Bikel

Aimee Ginsburg Bikel (Theodore Bikel's wife and director of the Theodore Bikel Legacy Project) is presenting a special Webinar Zoominar program: THE CITY OF LIGHT: STORIES AND SONGS OF THEODORE BIKEL on June 2, 2020 04:30 PM in Eastern Time (US and Canada).

“Aimee Ginsburg Bikel's shaping and sharing of her beloved late husband Theo Bikel's tale of what he experienced as a little boy during the rise, and then explosion, of hatred that preceded the Holocaust, is beautiful, painfully powerful, and a great gift. It is particularly meaningful in this time of mushrooming anti-Semitism, hatred and bigotry of every sort, worldwide. Told in the sweet poetic language of a child, and a one-day-to-become iconic actor, poet, folk singer and international activist for social justice, it is a riveting and undeniable tale, made all the more meaningful by the mounting denial of this history that we must tell and retell, lest it be repeated.' -PETER YARROW, Peter Paul and Mary

National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene (NYTF) will launch its Fall extension of the critically-acclaimed Yiddish language production of Fiddler on the Roof, playing at the Museum of Jewish Heritage (MJH) at Edmond J.

'On March 12th, 1938, thirteen year old Theo and his parents hid behind the curtains of their home and watched in horror as Hitler and his troops annexed Vienna. For the next six months the Bikels struggled to escape Europe.'

'All children are my children, I cry for them with same tears' wrote actor, singer and peace activist Theo Bikel a year before he died. Some 200 people gathered at a magnificent Beverly Hills estate on Sun Jan 28 to celebrate his life and memory, while raising funds for Project Rozana: Building Bridges to Peace through the medical treatment of wounded and ill Syrian children in Ziv hospital in Israel.

???????'Perhaps it is time that we stop focusing on the most powerful man in the world and start focusing on the most vulnerable individuals,' remarked Los Angeles Mayor, Eric Garcetti.
