Wise Fools: Fun with Yiddish Folk Tales

  • Hosmer Library 347 East 36th Street Minneapolis, MN, 55408 United States (map)

Join Shari Aronson of Z Puppets Rosenschnoz for a taste of Yiddish culture through songs, stories, and a puppet or two.

We'll go from kvetching (complaining) to kvelling (rejoicing), with a lot of laughs in between., featuring tales of the legendary fools of Chelm. Directed by Karly Bergmann.

This free, 30-minute work in progress performance is designed for older adults, but all ages are welcome — especially if they sing a long.

Shari Aronson is a 2025 recipient of a Creative Individuals grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board. This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
