The Gold Diggers (Aleichem play)

Di goldgreber (The gold diggers) is a play by Sholem Aleichem, in the tradition of Yiddish theatre.

Originally called The Treasure in its earlier incarnation, Aleichem changed the title after another play appeared with the same name.

[1] The subject is a comedy of shtetl life thrown into chaos by rumours of Napoleonic gold having been buried in the Jewish cemetery.

[2] The Polish State Jewish Theatre revived the play, using the original title The Treasure, in 1949.
