Behind the Scenes
There were a
good number of people who worked behind the scenes of the
Yiddish Art Theatre, so that the talented group of actors
could have the many successes they had over their long
existence. These tireless workers had many titles. There
were those, for example, who composed the music for many of
the productions and those who directed it. There were also
the art directors, the set painters and designers, the
costumers, the choreographers and ballet master, and the
publicity manager, whose job it was to make sure that the
word got out about each and every production. Many others,
in their own unique roles, made an essential contribution to
the success of Maurice Schwartz's Yiddish Art Theatre.
Below are photos
and job descriptions of just some of these people, presented
here to honor their commitment and dedication to the group's
worthy efforts.
