תיאטרון יהודי בשיקגו מוריד מחזמר של נעמי רגן, בטענה ששחקנים חששו מתגובות נגד העבודה עם הסופרת הישראלית

הערכה

A Jewish arts company in Chicago shelved a revival of Naomi Ragen's "Women's Minyan" because cast and crew feared professional fallout from working with the Israeli playwright. Ragen, 77, calls the decision McCarthyism, and the artistic director's email confirms a chilling dynamic: artists now weigh political reputations against artistic work. The episode signals how Israel-related cultural projects face internal pressure within Jewish institutions themselves. Watch whether other companies follow suit or push back.
