Introducing The Dybbukast

The Dybbukast, a project of theatre dybbuk, uses interviews with artists and scholars combined with performed readings to examine and contextualize novels, mythological narratives, poems, plays, and other writings from throughout history. The Dybbukast also explores what these works reveal about the forces still at play in our contemporary world. Look for new episodes the second Friday of every month.Founded in 2011 by Artistic Director Aaron Henne, theatre dybbuk creates provocative new works that blend physical theatre with dance, poetry, and music for exciting, utterly singular live experiences. The company explores the rich world of Jewish folklore, rituals, and history, building lyrical performances that illuminate universal human experience for contemporary audiences.

What do poems, plays, and other creative texts from throughout history tell us about the times in which they were written? And what do they reveal about the forces still at play in our contemporary societies? Using interviews with artists and scholars combined with readings performed by actors, The Dybbukast examines and gives context to creative works while exploring their relationships to issues still present today. ​ The Dybbukast is produced by theatre dybbuk. While the company is no longer producing full seasons, it will continue to use this platform to present live recordings of its illuminated lectures – which share The Dybbukast format – as they are available.
