Composer Frank London, director Alexandra Aron, lyricist Glen Berger (who co-wrote the book for the Spiderman musical on Broadway), and an eclectic troupe of Klezmer musicians cap their week-long creative residency by resurrecting and re-imagining a century-old masterwork of Yiddish theater. This experimental, operatic reworking of a sprawling play written by I.L. Peretz in 1907 fuses Klezmer, jazz, classical, rock, and world music to present a magical multimedia mash-up of mischief and mysticism ensuing over one night in the marketplace of a shtetl.
