The world's most famous and longest running Yiddish cultural experience returns for a 27th year to explore one of the most dynamic products of Yiddish culture: its theater. From its snappy and memorable songs to the deathless plays that made its productions magnets for Jews and non-Jews alike, the Yiddish theater is still with us: its effects are timeless and its influence on American popular culture undeniable. Special theater-theme classes at KlezKamp include Tearjerkers, Operettas and Haunted Tales (Miriam Isaacs), Yiddish Film Musicals of Abe Ellstein (Ron Robboy), Musical Theater-Joseph Rumshinsky (Ron Robboy), The World of Nahum Stutchkoff (Amanda Miryam-Khaye Seigel) and How Radio Saved the Yiddish Theater (myself). More than 60 of the world's finest teachers will offer more than 50 classes in instrumental music, song, Yiddish language, food, crafts, folklore and dance. We also offer a world-class KlezKids program, outstanding evening programs and dancing till the wee hours to live bands. Our home, The Hudson Valley Resort and Spa, is a modern hotel mit alle mayles (with all the trimmings) in the Catskill tradition, whose world-class kitchen and traditional fare is, as always, under the shtreng Glatt kosher hashgokhe of Ha'rov Gershon Kreuser.
