National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene

Since 1915, the award-winning National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene [NYTF] has presented a window into the world of Jewish culture by engaging, educating, and igniting the imaginations of generations of theatergoers. It is the longest consecutively-producing Yiddish theatre company in the world, NYC’s longest consecutively-producing performing arts company, and the sole-survivor of the original 2nd Avenue Yiddish theatres. NYTF presents plays, musicals, concerts, literary events and workshops in English, Yiddish, Ladino, Hebrew and Russian, with English and Russian supertitles accompanying most performances. Its mission is to celebrate the Jewish experience through the performing arts by transmitting a rich cultural legacy in exciting new ways that bridge social and cultural divides. www.nytf.org
