Following it's sold-out, critically acclaimed 2024 run and "Outstanding Production" Elliot Norton Award, The Dybbuk, returns to Boston for limited encore performances in Fall 2025.
The Dybbuk, winner of the 2025 Outstanding Production Elliot Norton Award, returns to Boston for limited encore performances! A mystical Yiddish folktale, this is a story of love, family, displacement, and the restless Jewish soul. Steeped in folklore and cultural tradition, reimagined in a contemporary new production by Ukrainian-born, Jewish director Igor Golyak, The Dybbuk is set in the heart of the historic sanctuary of The Vilna Shul, Boston’s Center for Jewish Culture on Beacon Hill.
The Dybbuk stars Andrey Burkovskiy as the Dybbuk and Yana Gladkikh as Leah, two tragic young lovers hovering between the worlds of the living and the beyond. The cast features the Arlekin Resident Company, with guest artists Deborah Martin as Frade and Robert Walsh as Sender. Directed by Igor Golyak.
