Jakie Rabinowitz You taught me that music is the voice of God! It is as honorable to sing in the theatre as in the synagogue! My songs mean as much to my audience as yours to your congregation! The Cantor Leave my house! I never want to see you again - you jazz singer! Harry Lee I hope this 'discovery' of yours, Mary, is as good as you think he is. Mary Dale Don't worry about him. If it's music - he can sing it. Moisha Yudelson Jakie, your singing would be like sunshine to your Papa. Jakie Rabinowitz You don't understand - he ordered me out of the house. Moisha Yudelson Jakie, remember - - a son's a son no matter if his Papa throws him out a hundred times!
