Wasn't there a Molly Picon - Second Avenue on Broadway or some such?


Also Pins and Needles - based on the life of Jewish garment workers?


And a whole world of Yiddish musicals from Second Avenue - that's off
Broadway.

I've wondered why a true Story of Esther musical hasn't been mounted on or
off Broadway.  The story and charachters lends themselves well enough.

Conversely, has anyone attempted to compile  or do a "best of" from the
wealth of Purim material acros the wrorld, eityher spiel or music related?

Thoughts?
