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 a surprise guest (Barbra sadly declined.) 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, set to a beautiful score. 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.”

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…
