There’s a Frum girls Drama program in a major city in U.S.A. that takes place during the year on Sundays (lots of Bais Yaakov type girls). They practice a whole year and perform in June. The Drama Head choses Broadway musicals and gears the whole script to a Jewish theme….Like “the Sound of Music” is called the “Sound of Torah” and the musical “Annie” is called “Chanie” and so on. These are enjoyable performances infused with Yiddishe themes sung to original music of the Broadway show. The Lyrics are adjusted to match the Jewish storyline. On performance day the Giant Auditorium is packed to capacity with Frum Mothers and Daughters from all walks of life and everyone enjoys the show. Here is a situation where you take something unholy and turn it into holy. It seems that there’s a one-upmanship on who could be frummer than the other…Between all the bans going on and people scrutinizing how frum one should or could be…it will only bring about Sinas Chinom when we surely need more AHAVAS YISROEL going on!
