The Glove Education Series Presents: The Rise & Fall of the Borscht Belt

The Glove Education Series continues with a FREE screening of the documentary The Rise & Fall of the Borscht Belt. Beginning in the 1920s, the Borscht Belt section of the Catskill Mountains in Sullivan and Ulster Counties became a summer retreat and sanctuary for millions of Jews. From the 1950s through the 1980s, this sprawling region of bed and breakfast farmhouses, bungalow colonies, and resort hotels numbered in the hundreds and drew people from all over the Eastern Seaboard. The Borscht Belt was famed for its social scene, epic food spreads, and its entertainment. The Borscht Belt was the launching pad for iconic stand-up comics such as Rodney Dangerfield, Joan Rivers, Alan King, Billy Crystal, and Jerry Seinfeld. Following the screening, we will have a Q&A moderated by Glove Theatre Board Member Aaron Enfield. He will discuss the history of the Borscht Belt with Jay Blotcher of the Borscht Belt Museum in Ellenville, New York.Saturday, May 10 – Parade/Downtown Festivities begin at 5:30pm. Concert begins at 7pm.
