Alex talks with his guest Eric about the National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene's production of Fiddler on the Roof currently playing at Stage 42 Off Broadway. We discuss what it's like to see the classic show performed entirely in Yiddish (with English and Russian supertitles), what got us both closest to crying and why it's better than The Phantom of the Opera. Links to things mentioned in the show...
