Inspired by S. Ansky's seminal play The Dybbuk, theatre maker Samara Hersch created Dybbuks, a contemporary feminist version of the dybbuk myth that evoked the many ways the dead inhabit female bodies through language, voice, memory and desire. Co-presented by Chamber Made and the Kadimah Jewish Cultural Centre & National Library, this Salon featured a discussion with Samara and lecturers Yoni Prior and Hinde Ena Burstin about the work and other Yiddish artists, moderated by Tamara Saulwick.
