Jewish Theater in Austria

From 1900 to 1938, Vienna had a small but extremely active Jewish theater scene that brought cabaret, musical theater, operettas, short works, and full-length dramas to the stage in Yiddish, Hebrew, and German. Yiddish ensembles such as the Jüdische Bühne, which existed from 1908 to 1938, and the ambitious Jüdische Künstlerspiele brought together actors from all over Eastern Europe performing mainly operettas, melodramas, and Yiddish revues in which not only song and dance, but also the problems of the day played an important role.
