Jewish Musical Theatre Firelech Details
A "firelech" is a "spark" which describes the Firelech group and it's entrance onto the entertainment scene of Jewish culture in Boston. "Firelech" roots come from another Jewish Group with the same name. In Vilnius (Lithuania) in 1971 a group of people organized a Jewish ensemble of music and dance, which was called "Firelech". That ensemble became well known in the former Soviet Union and around the world. In 1989 Anna Kravets became the artistic director and choreographer of that group. It performed in Russia, Israel, Japan, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, and Holland... We hope to carry on their tradition here in Boston. Firelech theatre was born in September, 2000 when Anna Kravets (she moved to the USA in 1999) suggested the idea of a Jewish Musical Theatre to a group of enthusiastic fans of Yiddish folk music. Her vision was very exciting and they decided to give it a try. She recruited Company members and backstage workers from the local Russian community. The company members are all volunteers rehearsing late into the night after their day jobs.
