Fresh off a sold-out triumph with the first Yiddish-language production of The Tenth Man by Paddy Chayefsky, which she translated and directed, Eleanor Reissa joins me for an expanded and frank discussion of her life in and out of the Yiddish and American stage. Don’t miss this talented, deep and wonderful icon of today’s New York theatre scene.
In fact, it’s all-Yiddish on Tuesday’s great show, broadcast at 10 AM (rebroadcast Friday at 10 AM) in Greater Philadelphia at WWDB 860 AM, or live-streamed everywhere on wwdbam.com. Great music! – – and you’ll even improve your Yiddish table manners with Rita Ratson. And then get to use them as you enjoy Chef Jane’s scrumptious Mandelbrot (mandel bread)!
Write the show at marshallportnoyshow@gmail.com, or P.O. Box 2786, Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004.
A dank, Marshall
