As part of the annual fundraiser, and YAAANA's fourth-anniversary celebrations, a screening (subtitled in English) of YAAANA's contemporary Yiddish production, Korone un der nayer normal (Corona and the New 'Normal'), inspired by Leah K. Hoffman’s 1930 play Kraft (Power). The play features Yiddish stars delivering a powerful message about the human condition in the era of social media. The performance will be followed by a premiere of a 3D animation of our planned Yiddishland California project for a future museum and cultural center, featuring a new song by Grammy-nominated Yiddish artist, Psoy Korolenko. The event will feature nosh and drinks with a Yiddish touch, sponsored by SAJAC, Bristol Farms, and Jimbo's.
