Yiddishpiel

The theatre was established in 1987[1] at the initiative of former Tel Aviv mayor Shlomo Lahat, Chairman of Mercantile Discount Bank Moshe Noiderfer, and Shmuel Etsyon, who also served as its chairman and artistic director until November 2011, when he was replaced by Sasi Keshet.

The theater's offices are located on Carlebach Road 7, Tel Aviv.

Since its establishment, the theater has performed 42 productions in front of large audiences in Israel and in other countries.

The theater has a wide selection of actors, including veterans such as Yaakov Bodo and Yaakov Alperon, and younger actors, who serve as the successors of Yiddish theater and culture, among them Dudu Fischer, Gadi Yagil, Anat Atzmon, Monica Vardimon, Jonathan Rozen, Yoni Eilat, and Amitai Kedar.

Throughout every play, there are Hebrew and Russian subtitles, as well as audio, for the benefit of those who do not speak Yiddish.
