Golem, The

Synopsis:
Drenched in the magic and mystery of the Kabbala, the GOLeM retells the legend of a sixteenth-century Rabbi in Prague who defies God when he molds and animates a huge clay figure to defend the Jewish community from attack. Written in Yiddish in 1921 by Russian expatriate H. Leivick, the GOLeM was astonishingly prophetic of the events of the Holocaust and the birth of the State of Israel. In the wake of September 11th, the play carries with it even more powerful echoes of the dilEmmas faced by our civilization today, especially the notion of whether we're forced to resort to violence to survive. Originally a daunting four hours in length, this new version clocks in at an economical one hour and twenty minutes.

Notes:
Original Playwright - H Leivick, Adapted by David Fishelson, from A translation by Joseph C. Landis
