During World War II, the Jewish people developed an intense cultural activity in concentration camps, extermination camps, and ghettos. Theater, music, cabaret, and opera were the pillars of the spiritual resistance that enabled their survival. This book is dedicated to Jewish humor and cabaret, the theatrical form that combines texts, singing, and dancing in a single performance. Jewish humor is a way of processing pain and suffering. In that magical moment when a flash of a joke appears, hunger, soup kitchens, forced labor, typhus, dead bodies in the streets, the black market, food cards, deportations to the East, and the endless suffering experienced for one reason alone - being Jewish - all disappear. Through humor, the Jewish people were able to maintain their dignity and feel that they were still human beings despite all of the Nazi attempts to destroy any vestige of humanity in them. Humor was able to transform pessimism into optimism, resignation into hope, and the present into the future. Through humor, the Jewish people have accomplished their supreme act of sabotage: survival. They have prevented their weaknesses from being stronger than their strengths. Humor is the secret weapon of the Jewish people. The Nazis did not understand it because they had no sense of humor. German is the same as Yiddish, but without a sense of humor. Humor before, during, and after World War II has been a space of freedom in hell where it was possible to be optimistic and leave pessimism for better times. The people who do not laugh are dead before dying. The Jewish people have known how to laugh to survive. Every day there was only one thought: just one more day. In those dark days when the future was no longer what it had been and when everyone hoped that tomorrow the future would be better, humor was key to enable survival. In this book, you will find a series of songs, phrases, jokes, and monologues that vividly and indelibly portray those sinister days of the Holocaust, when one people tried to exterminate another through industrial procedures. A show that, through a smile, allows us to exercise memory, avoid forgetting, and ensure that history does not repeat itself. Not with the Jewish people or with any other.
