"As we immersed ourselves in selecting this crop of first-rate documentaries and dramas, a theme arose: the Jewish influence on art, music, and the performing arts, from the shtetl to Broadway," JBFC's website reads. "So along with 14 lively discussions, this year we present six live performances—including singers, dancers, and the comedian David Steinberg, with his new stand-up show. This promises to be an extraordinary three weeks."
