Don't plotz, but the National Yiddish Theater Folksbiene is holding its "New York Sings Yiddish!" event at Central Park's Summerstage this evening. So muster your voice and your chutzpa for some sing-alongs with The Klezmatics and other musicians. NYTF's artistic director Zalmen Mlotek discusses the event, along with Ann Toback, CEO of The Workers Circle, which is celebrating the launch of its YiddishSongs.org archive, from which many of the event's musical selections were drawn. So, if "Oy vey!" is your default exclamation, get your tuchas to Summerstage to kibitz, nosh, sing along, and celebrate this endangered language that's very much part of New York City culture.
