Yiddishpiel – The Yiddish Theater in Israel – is the only Yiddish theater in Israel!
Yiddishpiel was established in 1987 with the mission of restoring to Yiddish, the language that had almost disappeared, its charm, its popularity, and its glory, and to make it the focus of a rich and significant culture that is an important foundation stone in the history of the Jewish nation.
Last October, Yiddishpiel presented a show called Dvash Nigar (Flowing Honey) which included the Prayer for the State of Israel (Avinu Shebashamayim). It was sung by Shai Abramson, Chief Cantor of the Israel Defense Forces, Sasi Keshet, Israeli actor and Yiddishpiel's Artistic Director, and singer/performer Kobi Arieli.
A M E N. A most moving prayer. The above voices are so beautiful. I could listen to them again and again. Thank you for sharing.
