-Goys & Dolls -- Oliver/Jewish content overall

[Klezcorner <Klezcorner...>]

We just picked up a new CD, "Goys & Dolls - A Parable for Our Times". 

This is an original show based on the music (but not the musical) of 'Guys & 
Dolls' by Frank Loesser. There is a great deal of interest in this project 
(here in Los Angeles) and there is a possibility that it will be staged.

The story deals with a young man who questions whether he should remain 
Jewish, his relationship with a "Shiksa" and eventual return to Judaism
The songs include:
Jerome's Nightmare, The Shiksa Song, Bushel Mit A Peck, Goys & Dolls, If You 
Knew How To Kvell, Gefilte Fish, Look How Her Matzo Balls Float...and many 
more.
this was brought to us by it's crater, Michael Lange, the producer of the TV 
show "Dawson's Creek"
