Purim shpiel and carnival at TI

Join Temple Israel from 10:30 to 11 a.m. for a Purim shpiel.

Led by TI member and artistic director of the J’s New Jewish Theatre, Rebekah Scallet, TI’s religious and Hebrew school students are practicing for an entertaining shpiel called Purim Pop Palooza, a new retelling of the Purim story with Purim characters singing parodies of songs by artists like Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X, Lizzo and even a little Baby Shark.

Free to attend.

Immediately following the shpiel, head to TI’s annual Purim Carnival (11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.) for games, prizes, entertainment, food and hamantashen, and a costume contest.

Games and prizes are geared toward littles through kids in grade 6. Wristbands are $15 and include entrance and complimentary hamantashen. Guests can order pizza, snacks or extra hamantashen in advance (by Feb. 27).
