Скачать или смотреть Jewish Night - Broadway at Avoca Beach Picture Theatre

Engaging, humorous, and provocative, Broadway Musicals: A Jewish Legacy examines the unique role of Jewish composers and lyricists in the creation of the modern American musical. The film showcases the work of legends such as Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern, George and Ira Gershwin, Lorenz Hart, Richard Rodgers, Oscar Hammerstein II, Leonard Bernstein, and Stephen Sondheim. Interviews with songwriters and luminaries including Sheldon Harnick, Stephen Schwartz, Harold Prince, Arthur Laurents, Charles Strouse, and Mel Brooks provide insight, alongside standout performances and archival footage.

Eddie Bronson Trio
Eddie Bronson Trio performed traditional Klezmer music at the Theatre with the audience insisting they keep playing! Klezmer is traditional, celebratory, secular Jewish music and we’re very excited they are returning for our Jewish Night.

Described by the SMH as “one of the most arresting sounds in Australian music”, multi-instrumentalist Eddie Bronson is an integral part of the folk and jazz music scene. Eddie brings his gypsy folk Klezmer to the Theatre in this special performance for our Jewish Night with the astounding Leonid Beshley and Anatoli Tshorsinki.

Their performance will be followed by the fascinating film 'Broadway Musicals: A Jewish Legacy' exploring the phenomenon that saw the development of Broadway almost exclusively by Jewish Americans, making up the vast majority of the ever popular ‘American Songbook.
