A queer, heretical Yiddish play too edgy for 1906 lives again on Zoom
In spite of months of tsuris over production challenges, the Yiddish Theatre Ensemble soon will stream an adapted, videotaped performance of “God of Vengeance,” a groundbreaking and controversial play written by Sholem Asch in 1906.
“Sometimes the internet or the green screen wouldn’t work,” the play’s director, Bruce Bierman, said of the technical difficulties. “We held conference calls that the actors couldn’t get in on, or the audio was off and all this was going on during the pandemic, the wildfires, the elections and the insurrections.”
