"When #Shakulashvili started speaking publicly about the long-lost #Yiddishtheater, non-#Jewish #Georgian #actors and #directors reached out. Many were stunned to learn that #Tbilisi once had a #Yiddish stage, shut down in 1926 by #Soviet authorities. A question emerged: Could the #theater be revived?

Shakulashvili’s discovery and networks forged online brought together Georgian historians, Jewish community leaders and actors of all backgrounds. #AnaSanaia, a prominent Georgian #actress, director and #playwright emerged as the #producer who’d make this dream a reality.

A century after its last #performance, the #TbilisiYiddishTheater reopened in 2023. The first production – performed in Yiddish and old #Russian, with Georgian supertitles – was #OsipDymov’s 1907 #drama #ShemaYisroel (named for a centerpiece prayer in #Judaism)."

I know Hollywood, and sometimes I write about it. Producing beer commercials was some of the most fun I ever had as a producer.
