1974131516New York: Chelsea Theater Center 1974. Original script for the 1974 play. Based on the 1962 short story by Isaac Bashevis Singer and adapted by him and playwright Leah Napolin for the stage the play premiered October 25 1975 at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre and ran for a total of 223 performances. Tovah Feldshuh was nominated for a Tony for her portrayal of the title role. <br/><br/>Faithful to the original story the play follows a young woman who begins living as a man named Anshel after her father dies in order to continue studying the Torah in defiance of Jewish tradition. An early exploration of transgender identity as Anshel describes himself as "neither one sex nor the other" and having "the soul of a man in the body of a woman." Yentl's choice to live as Anshel even after being discovered strongly contrasts with the text of the better known Barbra Streisand musical film purportedly despised by Singer where the transgender aspect of the narrative is replaced by a more heteronormative romance.<br/><br/>Blue studio wrappers. Title page present dated 1974 with credits for novelist Singer and playwright Napolin. 155 leaves mimeograph duplication. Pages Very Good plus wrapper Very Good bound with two gold brads.
