The Yiddish Art Theatre was a New York Yiddish theatre company of the 20th century. The organization was founded in 1918 by actor and impresario Maurice Schwartz, to present serious Yiddish drama and works from world literature in Yiddish.[1][2] At its 1918 founding, the Yiddish Art Theatre was housed at the Irving Place Theatre in Union Square, Manhattan. In 1919 the company moved to the Garden Theatre at Madison Avenue and 27th Street, where they remained on and off for six years, presenting works by playwrights including Leonid Andreyev, S. Ansky, Sholem Aleichem, Maxim Gorky, Gerhart Hauptmann, Peretz Hirschbein, David Pinski, Arthur Schnitzler, George Bernard Shaw and Oscar Wilde.{{citation needed|date=March 2017}} The Garden Theatre was part of the second Madison Square Garden complex, and in the face of plans to demolish the complex the Yiddish Art Theatre moved to the Nora Bayes Theater on West 44th Street in 1925.{{citation needed|date=March 2017}} Their tenancy there was brief, as the next year the Yiddish Art Theatre moved to its own purpose-built theatre: the Louis N. Jaffe Theater, a Moorish Revival theatre on Second Avenue in the heart of the Yiddish Theatre District which Brooklyn developer and prominent Jewish community leader Louis Jaffe had built in 1925–1926 to house the company.[1] Shows produced by Maurice Schwartz at this new venue included a production of "Yoshe Kalb" which ran for 300 performances.[5] The Yiddish Art Theatre operated for 40 years after its founding, performing classics of Yiddish, European and English theatre, ranging from works by Sholem Aleichem to William Shakespeare.{{citation needed|date=March 2017}} References1. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=https://www.6sqft.com/the-urban-lens-inside-the-village-east-cinema-one-of-nys-last-surviving-yiddish-rialto-theaters/ |title=The Urban Lens: Inside the Village East Cinema, one of NY’s last surviving 'Yiddish Rialto' theaters |author=James Murray and Karla Murray |date=January 27, 2017 |work=6sqft |accessdate=March 5, 2017}} [1][2][3]2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://localeastvillage.com/2012/06/08/stepping-back-into-the-golden-age-of-yiddish-theater/ |title=Strolling Back Into the Golden Age of Yiddish Theater |author=Annie Cofone |date=June 8, 2012 |work=The Local – East Village |accessdate=March 5, 2017}} 3. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://www.nypl.org/blog/2014/03/18/yiddish-broadway-and-beyond |title=The Yiddish Broadway and Beyond |author=Amanda Seigel |date=March 18, 2014 |publisher=New York Public Library |accessdate=March 5, 2017}} }} 3 : 1918 establishments in New York (state)|Yiddish theatre in the United States|Theatre in New York City |
