“There is a strong Jewish presence on the cultural and intellectual scene of the Western world. This is as true of the theater as it is of most other facets within the arts. My task at the start of this Congress, the first such undertaking of its kind, is to start a conversation about what we can define as the uniquely Jewish contribution to the art form, to take stock of who we are and what audiences we aim to address.” Keynote Address by Theodore Bikel (Los Angeles),

“The function of the artist is not only to please, to soothe, to pacify but also to ruffle feathers. We must be able to present plays, films, poems or songs which are critical of society and thus point the way toward a world which is better than the world we have. That surely must resonate with anyone who is serious about Tikkun Olam, the betterment of the world, the motto of this Congress.” Keynote Address by Theodore Bikel (Los Angeles),
