UNA NOCHE IDISHE: AN ARGENTINE YIDDISH EXPERIENCE
Copresented With Yiddishkayt Los Angeles

The rich Jewish/Yiddish culture of Argentina is celebrated in a boisterous trilingual evening of dance, film, Yiddish tangos, klezmer music, theater and comedy. The performance features artists that embrace both their Eastern European Jewish and Argentine identities, including Los Angeles-based Argentine clarinetist Gustavo Bulgach and his Grammy-nominated ensemble Klezmer Juice, popular Argentine singer and actress Divina Gloria and Argentine aficionado Schwee Miguel with dancers from his Tango Ganas dance company. Una Noche Idishe is a prelude to Yiddishkayt's next biennial citywide celebration, centered on the vibrant cultural production of the Jewish/Yiddish communities of Mexico and Argentina.
