I thought you preferred sunglasses? AND YOU have ten thousand different headbands… Well, why not? We only have one head, why shouldn’t I want to make it look as cool as I can? Because fashion is not important right now. So whatever the maskmaker makes you, you’ll wear it! Right? Of course, right. Covid, oh Covid Have I made a mask for you! Its stretchy, it’s soft Okay it stinks of glue But it’s a fine size, a bright hue, true? True. I know it might be smelly And even if it’s hot Put it on you STAT Cover up your snot CHarona, I found it! Now you get to go outside It’s spandex, it’s cute Okay, no, that’s a lie But it’s a fine mask, a bit tight, right? Right. And no you can’t reuse it You’ll need a new one every night It’s only temporary So let’s not fight. Now let’s cover up your face It is not a very hard task With no touching, no parties, no steady employment Be glad you got a MASK! Maskmaker, maskmaker You know that I, don’t like the outside So please, take your time Up to this minute I thought that I could Go maskless and still be good It’s clear now We will be covered Unless we stay safe inside It’s not that we were against them It’s just that we hadn’t tried! Maskmaker, maskmaker We will pull through What did you say? I can’t hear you It’s cause I’m wearing My mask now, you fools So, Go get a shirt Fold it two times This line is here So that it rhymes I’ve made my own mask, and it looks fine!?

Broadway in Yiddish? - Joel Grey and Fiddler on the Roof at Easter Bonnet Competition 2019

At the 2019 Easter Bonnet Competition, the award for best presentation went to the cast of Off-Broadway’s Fiddler on the Roof - in Yiddish, which asked the question, “What if other Broadway classics were translated into Yiddish?” Their answer was a side-splitting medley of the Yiddish versions of The Book of Mormon, Chicago, Dreamgirls, Hamilton, Legally Blonde, South Pacific, West Side Story and Wicked, culminating with the show’s legendary director, Joel Grey, singing “Git op mayn grus tsu Brodvey” (“Give my regards to Broadway”) from George M!. The skit was written by cast members Ben Liebert and Adam B. Shapiro with Yiddish lyrics by Mikhl Yashinsky. Records were shattered and inspiring, comical and soul-stirring performances were shared at the 33rd annual Easter Bonnet Competition, which raised $6,594,778 for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the highest amount ever for a Broadway Cares event. The record-breaking number was raised by 69 Broadway, Off-Broadway and national touring productions and was announced Tuesday, April 23, 2019, by Bryan Cranston (Network), Jeff Daniels (To Kill a Mockingbird), Glenda Jackson (King Lear) and Kelli O’Hara (Kiss Me, Kate). The previous record was $6,379,572, set in 2017. Since the Easter Bonnet Competition began in 1987, the event has raised $87.5 million for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.
