SPECIAL BRUNCH & “FILM!”…CELEBRATING THEODORE BIKELSunday, December 15th, 10:30 am
Join us for some FREE Brunch, and a lot of Celebrating of an icon: Theodore Bikel, with Aimee Ginsburg Bikel
Showing, “In the Shoes of Sholom Aleichem” … a moving autobiographical film about Theodore Bikel. Q & A following the film.
Portraits of two beloved icons–Sholom Aleichem and Theodore Bikel–are woven together in this enchanting new documentary. The two men had much in common: wit, wisdom and talent, all shot through with deep humanity and Yiddishkeit. Theodore Bikel, the unstoppable performer whose career spans more than 150 screen roles (including an Oscar-nominated turn in The Defiant Ones) and countless stage and musical productions, is also the foremost interpreter of Sholom Aleichem’s work. Bikel played Tevye the Milkman on stage more than 2,000 times, and he animated Aleichem’s work through his creation of two celebrated musical plays about the great Russian author. – IMDb
