The book further discusses their wanderings through the Soviet Union during the Second World War and their attempt to revive Jewish culture in Poland after the Holocaust, and finally describes their arrival in Israel, first as guest performers and later as permanent residents. Despite the restrictions on Yiddish actors in Israel, the duo insisted on performing in their own language and succeeded in translating the new Israeli reality into unique and timely satire. In the 1950s, they voiced a political and cultural critique of a kind that was not heard on any of the Hebrew stages. After they parted ways, and following the death of Shumacher in 1961, Dzigan continued to perform on his own and with other Israeli artists until his death in 1980. The book is based on rare recordings, transcriptions, programs, personal diaries, letters, photographs, oral testimonies, and critical articles, all of which come together to create the first critical portrait of this extraordinary duo. The book also examines their art, the connection between theater and politics, and the complex relationship between majority culture and minority language. The study includes several valuable indexes: of titles of programs and plays, of the artists who participated in them, of writers and the drafts they wrote, of actors and the programs in which they participated, and a general name index. The book also includes a facsimile of the manuscript Der Nayer Dybbuk"-- |cPublisher's website 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 Theater, Yiddish |zPoland |xHistory. 650 0 Theater, Yiddish |zIsrael |xHistory. 600 10 Dz'igan, Shimʻon, |d1905-1980. 600 10 Shumacher, Israel. 650 0 Theater |xPolitical aspects |zIsrael. 650 0 Jewish actors |vBiography. 650 6 Théâtre yiddish |0(CaQQLa)201-0101578 |zPologne |0(CaQQLa)201-0494059 |xHistoire. |0(CaQQLa)201-0378888 650 6 Théâtre yiddish |0(CaQQLa)201-0101578 |zIsraël |0(CaQQLa)201-0482688 |xHistoire. |0(CaQQLa)201-0378888 650 6 Théâtre |xAspect politique |0(CaQQLa)201-0035600 |zIsraël. |0(CaQQLa)201-0482688 650 6 Acteurs juifs |0(CaQQLa)201-0298674 |vBiographies. |0(CaQQLa)201-0378258 600 17 Dz'igan, Shimʻon, |d1905-1980. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00480246 600 17 Shumacher, Israel. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01525857 650 7 Jewish actors. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00982635 650 7 Theater |xPolitical aspects. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01149276 650 7 Theater, Yiddish. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01149368 651 7 Israel. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204236 651 7 Poland. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01206891 600 17 Dz'igan, Shimʻon, |d1905-1980. |2nli 600 17 Shumacher, Yisroel. |2nli 650 7 Theater, Yiddish |zPoland |xHistory. |2nli 650 7 Theater, Yiddish |zIsrael |xHistory |y20th century. |2nli 650 7 Theater |xPolitical aspects |zIsrael. |2nli 650 7 Jewish actors |vBiography. |2nli 655 7 Biographies. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Biographies. |2lcgft 655 7 Biographies. |2rvmgf |0(CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000519 776 08 |iebook version : |z9783110717778 852 0 |bscstacks |hPN3035 |i.R6713 2021
