Lorin Sklamberg (Klezmatics) With Sasha Lurje and Craig Judelman @ Temple Beth Sholom
Feb 20 @ 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm

Featuring the voice of the Klezmer revival, Lorin Sklamberg and darling of the international Yiddish scene, Sasha Lurje, this new transatlantic collaboration presents an enchanting evening of Yiddish songs and dance music.
From old folk ballads to the golden age of the Lower East Side, these two pillars of the Klezmer share some of their favorite little known songs. They’re joined by fiddler Craig Judelman, whose background with old time folk music -Yiddish and otherwise – provides the perfect counterpoint, along with Mr. Sklamberg’s accordion, for these two incredible voices. This small all star band packs a big punch, inviting audiences into the dark and passionate inner world of Yiddish song.
Tickets are $20 and free for ages 12 and under.

Indecent @ PSU: Lincoln Hall
Feb 20 @ 7:30 pm

February 19 – March 8, 2020 at PSU: LINCOLN HALL
A co-production with Artists Repertory Theatre, in association with Portland State University

2:00 pm matinees on Sundays

Nominated for a Tony Award for Best Play of 2017. Sholem Asch’s play The God of Vengeance made a splash on Broadway in 1923, when it was shut down and all of the actors were arrested on charges of obscenity for portraying a lesbian romance between a brothel-owner’s daughter and one of the prostitutes. Pulitzer-prize winning playwright Paula Vogel weaves scenes of Asch’s incendiary play with the imagined conversations with the risk-taking company that brought the script to the stage. Indecent is a riveting backstage drama filled with music, groundbreaking Yiddish theatre, and stage magic.
