The Great Yiddish Parade brings together Yiddish theatre researchers, seasoned street band musicians, vibrant Yiddish singers and brilliant contemporary theatre-makers, to create a life-affirming big band street performance which connects multicultural Britain with a forgotten working-class immigrant community of the past.
