The Israel Opera is performing a world premier of the new original opera, in Hebrew, of The Dybbuk. Composed by the renown composer Yosef Bardanashvili, the first operatic adaption of the Jewish classic will open February 18 for just five performances. Director and librettist Ido Ricklin told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that he reinvented the classic S. Ansky play to give the protagonists Leah a more universal aspect.
