Staging Mikhl Yashinsky’s American Yiddish Drama

Mikhl Yashinsky is on The Shmooze to talk about his new drama The Gospel According to Chaim, the strange tale of a Jewish writer’s quixotic attempt to publish a controversial book. The New Yiddish Rep, who is producing the play, says this is the first entirely original, full-length American Yiddish drama to be produced for a general audience in seven decades.
