I have certainly _heard_ of it (as well as Yiddish versions of other 
Gilbert & Sullivan works), but I really would have no idea where to look 
for lyrics. Either the "Mikado" or "Pirates of Penzance" in Yiddish was 
performed at Brooklyn College (BCBC) a year and a half ago. I'll keep an 
eye out for it, though.
