King Lear even gets a penalty as a fictional character. This bout is an ingenious choice for the work of a playwright who focused his historical plays on British royalty. But that leads us at Plotting Yiddish Drama to wonder: how would you represent Yiddish historical plays?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It would probably be a grand spectacle. Forget the politics of succession\u2014Yiddish theatregoers wanted operettas! The favorite genres for New York Yiddish theater audiences at the turn of the twentieth century were \u201coperettas, musical comedies, and melodramas with musical underpinnings.\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/brush-up-on-your-yiddish-history-plays#fn-1\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/a>&nbsp;The historical repertoire was no exception\u2014music and dance numbers were beloved by theatre audiences. The lullaby \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/exhibitions.yivo.org\/items\/show\/5472\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rozhinkes mit mandlen<\/a>\u201d (Raisins and Almonds) from Avrom Goldfaden\u2019s historical operetta&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/plotting-yiddish-drama\/shulamis-oder-bas-yerusholayim\">Shulamis<\/a>&nbsp;<\/em>was incredibly popular onstage and off. In fact, the Jewish-themed episode of the Australian television series&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1988386\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Miss Fisher\u2019s Murder Mysteries<\/a><\/em>&nbsp;(based on Kerry Greenwood\u2019s Phryne Fisher novels, set in 1920s Melbourne), is called&nbsp;<em>Raisins and Almonds<\/em>&nbsp;in reference to the song. Too bad neither the mystery novel nor the television episode mentions the theatre connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yiddish historical dramas weren\u2019t dry, but they might be \u201cbaked\u201d\u2014playwrights like \u201cProfessor\u201d Moyshe Hurwitz who were under pressure to create new dramas quickly added \u201ca superficially Yiddish flavor to somebody else\u2019s play, by giving it a Yiddish title, by giving the characters Yiddish names, and by setting them down in Eastern Europe or the Lower East Side or ancient Palestine.\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/brush-up-on-your-yiddish-history-plays#fn-2\"><sup>2<\/sup><\/a>&nbsp;When his rivals at the Rumanian Opera House decided to perform a play about Jews in fifteenth century Spain called&nbsp;<em>Don Isaac Abravanel<\/em>, Hurwitz \u201csimply rummaged up a play about a hermit by the popular German playwright Kotzebu\u00eb, adapted it violently, named it&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/plotting-yiddish-drama\/don-yozef-abravanel\">Don Joseph Abravanel<\/a><\/em>, and managed to open it, barely rehearsed, before his rivals knew what hit them.\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/brush-up-on-your-yiddish-history-plays#fn-3\"><sup>3<\/sup><\/a>&nbsp;While some might call this idea half-baked, Yiddish theatre audiences seem to have thought it was completely well done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And of course there were particularly popular historical periods to portray on stage: ancient Israel and medieval Spain.&nbsp;<em>Shulamis<\/em>&nbsp;is probably the best-known example of a play set in ancient Israel. Written in the 1880s during Goldfaden\u2019s romantic nationalist period,&nbsp;<em>Shulamis<\/em>&nbsp;would provide historical affirmation for generations of (Eastern European) Jews, whether living in Czarist Russia, Nazi-occupied Poland, or the Soviet Union under Stalin.<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/brush-up-on-your-yiddish-history-plays#fn-4\"><sup>4<\/sup><\/a>&nbsp;If authorities complained that a production set in ancient Israel might be too political, perhaps even Zionist, artists could claim it was a light pastoral operetta that should not be taken seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our latest batch of historical dramas includes even more examples of works with Sephardic themes. In addition to the Hurwitz play, there\u2019s another Goldfaden&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/plotting-yiddish-drama\/doktor-almosado\">operetta<\/a>, a Dovid Pinski&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/plotting-yiddish-drama\/der-shtumer-meskhiekh\">drama<\/a>&nbsp;with messianic themes, a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/plotting-yiddish-drama\/shloyme-molkho\">verse drama<\/a>&nbsp;by A. Leyeles about Marranos in Portugal, and Kadya Molodowsky\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uwm.edu\/yiddish-stage\/plotting-yiddish-drama\/nokhn-got-fun-midber-1\">dramatization<\/a>&nbsp;of the life of Do\u00f1a Gracia Mendes. In recent years, scholars such as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sup.org\/books\/title\/?id=22789\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jonathan Skolnik<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/press.princeton.edu\/titles\/10624.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">John M. Efron<\/a>&nbsp;have investigated the appeal of Sephardic themes for German Jews. Feel free to use these synopses (and the plays themselves) to consider the things that fascinated Yiddish speakers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, it is difficult to come up with a tidy metaphor that works as well as a football match. Yet instead of being a problem, this lack of a single historical thrust speaks instead to the diversity\u2013\u2013and unruliness\u2013\u2013of the Yiddish dramatic repertoire. We invite you to check out the current batch of plays, as well as previous and future synopses of works set in the past. Draw connections between dramatic works and contemporary prose texts (for instance,&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yivoencyclopedia.org\/article.aspx\/Mapu_Avraham\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Avraham Mapu<\/a>\u2019s nineteenth century Hebrew novel&nbsp;<em>Love of Zion<\/em>&nbsp;has parallels to&nbsp;<em>Shulamis<\/em>).
