    I love kugel. It's a special treat. But poor Isadore, well, the kugel for him is more of a problem. A fun piece, especially if your costumer has a brave imagination. Funny, inviting, and you will be hungry afterwards.

    This was such a heartwarming piece. I must have smiled the whole way through!

    Bierman's yarn is not only a nimble, clever, and charming piece, it's also a master class in explaining the sudden absence of goodies in the fridge to the youngsters.

This is a show in the style of a story being told. With that in mind, one actor could portray both characters, or a separate actor could play the kugel
