SUMMARY:Exploring Judaism Through TV + Film: Isaac Butler on Transparent
DESCRIPTION:World Jewry Committee Presents\nA Jewish Culture Series: Explor
 ing Judaism Through TV + Film\n\n\nJewish characters have existed as long 
 as the medium itself. But in recent years\, these portrayals have become e
 ven more relevant and are taking on new forms with more radical opinions a
 nd commentaries on the world than ever before. In this 3-part series\, we 
 welcome a broad range of speakers to fill us in on contemporary Jewish cha
 racters.\n\nIsaac Butler on Amazon’s Transparent\nWednesday\, April 11th
 \, 2018\, 7:45 - 9:15 pm in the WJC Activity Center\nCoffee\, tea and cake
 \n\n\nIsaac Butler\, a writer and theater director\, will discuss the Jewi
 shness of Transparent and how it is leaving such a strong mark our culture
 . It feels as Jewish as a Seder Plate\, or Jon Stewart’s original last n
 ame. This is\, after all\, a show whose first season ended with Maura\, th
 e trans matriarch of the Pfefferman clan played by Jeffrey Tambor\, resign
 edly muttering “Oy gevalt” in an episode titled “Why Do We Cover the
  Mirrors?” He is co-writing the upcoming book The World Only Spins Forwa
 rd\, a history of Angels in America.\n\n\nFor more information\, contact H
 olly Rosen Fink at holly_rosen@yahoo.com.
