In honor of the upcoming holiday of Purim we have prepared a short research into the subject of the Purim Shpiel and the related and sometimes overlapping Purim Play. In addition I have prepared a list of American Purim Plays from the 1910s through the 1950s that I acquired some time ago but have finally cataloged. The can both be found on the Hollander Books blog. The historical account can be found here:
