| Title: | All about Jewish theatre |
|---|---|
| Description: | The website 'All About Jewish Theatre' acts as a platform for Jewish and Israeli theatre practitioners and aims to be a central point of information on Jewish theatre and performing arts. It offers an excellent up-to-date news service which covers issues relating to Jewish theatre from all over the world, including for example, new productions, interviews with performers and directors, and festivals. News from the USA, the UK, Israel, Australia, Europe and Yiddish theatre receives particular attention. The site's international day-to-day events and performances guide keeps users informed as to what's on and where. The site also features a comprehensive database of resources, including a collection of full-text scholarly articles on the field, links to online journals, synopses and performance details of plays by Jewish writers, and information about where to source film adaptations. The site aims to bring together professionals in Jewish theatre and the performing arts worldwide and to this end has created a directory which may be browsed according to country or organisation, for example. For researchers, this represents a useful means of contacting individuals who may be the subject of their study. The site also supports practitioners in their work by means of listing information about funding and sponsorship, venues, competitions and festivals. Altogether, this is a substantial and immensely valuable resource for anyone working in this field. |
