Yentl Tickets

Based on Isaac Bashevis Singer's 1962 short story 'Yentl the Yeshiva Boy', Yentl is the story of a young woman who defies Orthodox tradition by studying Jewish theology with her rabbi father. After her father's death, Yentl defies the laws of segregation by disguising herself as a man and joining a yeshiva where she can continue her education. As her search for knowledge continues and she struggles with her feelings for a fellow student, what unravels is a complex exploration of faith, gender, tradition, and challenging the boundaries set by society.

Following a sold-out, triumphant run at the Sydney Opera House, Kadimah Yiddish Theatre's acclaimed bilingual staging of Singer's revolutionary story is transferring to London's Marylebone Theatre for a limited six-week run. A powerful, urgent, and intimate celebration of Yiddish culture, Yentl is bold, lyrical, and unabashedly modern. Praised as "nothing short of magic" by TimeOut and "a superb theatrical coup" by the Guardian, Yentl is a remarkable story of courage, identity, and living your truth, directed by Gary Abraham and starring Amy Hack as Yentl.
