Start:
I love it here, Joseph. On the Lower East Side you look up and see all those tenements. Inside, men and women are talking. Or loving. Maybe the wife is preparing a chicken. Someone is playing piano. People are dancing. Or having a fight.
[... … …]
End:
We’ll Americanize the Yiddish actors and the Yiddish public. A new culture full of hope and resistance and joy. That’s what we’ll do, Joseph. Isn’t that right? Isn’t that what we’re here for?
