The Magic of Theo Bikel

To cap off the 17th Annual Israeli and Jewish Film Festival, Aimee Ginsburg–Bikel, widow of the late, great icon Theodore Bikel, z”l, will present a moving and memorable program in honor of his centennial. 

Theo Bikel played Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof more than 2,000 times and captivated audiences with his warmth, wit, and humanity. He was also a passionate advocate for social justice, a co–founder of the Newport Folk Festival, an accomplished folksinger in 21 languages, and a proud voice for Jewish culture and values. 

Through personal stories, film and music, Aimee Ginsburg–Bikel brings Theo’s story to life.
