Extended Interview with Luzer Twersky on the 2020 Election (Bonus Podcast)

Luzer Twersky, actor in Yiddish and American
Theatre and Film (on Twitter as @Twersky). Twersky grew up
speaking Yiddish in a Chassidic home in Boro Park but left that
life behind as a young adult, cutting most ties with his family
and community. He now works as an actor in film, television,
and theater, performing both in Yiddish- and English-speaking
roles. Twersky appears as one of the three subjects of the
recent documentary One of Us, recently released on Netflix,
which chronicles his and two others' break from Chassidic life.
Recently, he performed on the Yiddish stage in New York in the
role of Sam Feinschreiber in Awake and Sing! (Yiddish title:
Vakh Oyf Un Zing), which was presented by the New Yiddish Rep
theater company at New York's 14th Street Y in Union Square.

A shorter version of this interview was originally aired on
the Yiddish Voice radio show aired October 28 2020 and in episode

Discussed by Holocaust Survivors et al".

The first 11 min. 1 sec. are the same as in the originally
aired radio show/podcast. The remainder is new, previously
unreleased audio.
