The National Yiddish Theatre - Folksbiene is postponing the official press opening of "The Golden Land," until Thursday November 8 at 7:30pm, due to the effects of Hurricane Sandy.
This fall the National Yiddish Theatre - Folksbiene will revive "The Golden Land," for five weeks, from Sunday October 28 to December 2, with an opening on Sunday November 4 at 6pm. Created by Zalmen Mlotek and Moishe Rosenfeld, and directed by Bryna Wasserman, "The Golden Land" uses period music and other source material to create 'a richly textured evocation of New York as it absorbed wave upon wave of Jewish immigrants from the 1880's into the 1910s, and again, in a second starkly different phase immediately before and after World War II.'
