AO3 Name:larissabernstein Letter Link:My Letter Fandom(s): Dance of the Vampires (Broadway 2002/2003) - Steinman/Ives/Kunze Character(s): Sarah Chagal Comment: Sarah Chagal and her parents are canonically Jewish characters. The Broadway version pretty much erased their Jewishness. However, given that the original German-language version leant quite much into stereotypes, to a degree that could even be called antisemitic (especially regarding Sarah’s father), I was actually not unhappy about this change. But I would be delighted about Sarah getting her Jewish identity back in fic, and I think it would make for a good plot bunny (how does Krolock cope with it? how does Sarah live her Jewish religion and culture after turning a vampire?), be it in a more serious or more humorous way.
