  • What Gives Me Hope and Broadway Legend Seth Rudetsky

    What Gives Me Hope and Broadway Legend Seth Rudetsky
    Nov 18 2025
    In this spirited and emotional episode of Being Jewish with Jonah Platt, Broadway legend Seth Rudetsky — actor, pianist, musical director, SiriusXM host (Seth’s Big Fat Broadway, Seth Speaks), comedy writer, and tireless advocate — joins Jonah for an honest conversation about the deep history of Jewish contributions to Broadway. They discuss the rise of anti-Jewish and anti-Israel sentiment in the arts world, and the creations of the Jewish Broadway Alliance, a grassroots effort Seth launched in the wake of October 7th. Drawing from decades on stage and behind the piano, Seth opens up about the challenges of Jewish advocacy, the shock of Broadway’s silence that drove him to speak up, and the emotional weight of organizing initiatives like the Broadway-hosted hostage video and Broadway Shabbat. Seth and Jonah also delve into the highlights from Rudetsky's extraordinary career — from hosting Stars in the House during the COVID-19 pandemic to his concerts for social justice causes — and his dream of creating new educational content celebrating Jewish history through music. This conversation is a celebration of Jewish creativity and the deep-rooted bond between Jewish artists and the Broadway stage. And if you listen through to the end, you’ll find a special surprise that captures the spirit, heart, and joy that Seth brings to every room he enters.The Importance of Jewish Influence on BroadwayIntroducing the Special Episode and GuestSeth Advocacy and Jewish IdentityThe Impact of October 7th on SethForming the Jewish Broadway AllianceChallenges and Support in the Broadway CommunityBroadway Shabbat and Jewish JoyConcerts and Fundraising for Social JusticeStars in the House: A COVID-Time InitiativeCameron Crowe's Scaled-Down Broadway ProductionSupporting a One-Man Show: Ariel Stachel's StoryJewish Upbringing and Summer Camp MemoriesFive Deep Questions with Seth RudetskyGrand Finale: A Musical PerformanceThis episode is supported by Berkeley Mosha, a Jewish co-housing community in California.Seth Rudetsky InstagramSeth Rudetsky CareerJewish Broadway Alliance YouTubeSiriusXM On Broadway Seth’s Big Fat Broadway CruiseEntertainment Community FundSeth’s Posts after October 7thBroadway community “Bring Them Home” song for the HostagesBroadway for Orlando “What the World Needs Now”Broadway for Biden/Harris Inauguration Black Theater UnitedStars in the House YouTubeJack PlotnickShabbat on BroadwayAmanda LipitzJulie Benko Sings “Tomorrow” - Hanukkah on BroadwayEverything’s Coming Up Moses by Rachel Shukert: A Biblical Fable based on GYPSYUnited Voices For ChangeAJC: 5 Facts About Jewish Connection to IsraelZionism has become a 'bad' word.
