Papa Can You Hear Me: A Spectacular Screening of Yentl
Join The Neighborhood for a special screening of Yentl–Barbra Streisand's 1983 cinematic masterpiece, featuring a live performance by Simply Barbra–the premier Barbra drag impersonator who brings the legendary diva to life with unmatched flair. Bonus points for showing up in a Yentl or Barbra-inspired costume!
Yentl tells the story of a young Jewish woman in Eastern Europe who disguises herself as a man in order to pursue her dream of studying torah—something forbidden to women at the time. Directed, produced, and performed by Barbra Streisand, the film blends themes of identity, love, and self-determination. It's a powerful (and campy!) exploration of gender, tradition, and the courage to follow one's heart. To quote Barbra quoting Steven Spielberg, “It's the best film I've seen since Citizen Kane.”
Don’t miss Simply Barbra, who will have you saying “hello gorgeous!” as she channels the greatest star herself with all the glamour, wit, and vocal perfection you’d expect. This is more than just a movie night—it's a celebration of Barbra's legacy, LGBTQ+ culture, and the powerful messages of Yentl, live from Barbra’s home borough of BK. Join us for an unforgettable evening of cinema and drag, where the magic of Barbra Streisand is brought to life!
