The Jews of Belfast - Part 2

Documentary by Harry Towb

[@MacEoin]

I'm absolutely gobsmacked that the section on the Arts makes no mention at all of one of the most important Jewish contributors to Northern Irish life, Helen Lewis. Helen was a significant figure in the Lyric Theatre; she founded and expanded the Ulster Ballet, and later won an OBE for her contribution. Later in life, she wrote a wonderful memoir of her youth in Czechoslovakia, and her years in various concentration camps. The most extraordinary woman I have ever met. Shameful to omit her.
