HERSHEL AND THE HANUKKAH GOBLINS
adapted by Shari Aronson from the book by Eric A. Kimmel
An Outdoor Play for Scoundrels and Scamps
A weary traveler named Hershel of Ostropol approaches a village where he finds not a single candle lit and townspeople cowering in fear. A band of frightful goblins has taken over the synagogue and have driven the townspeople away. Using wits alone, this clever trickster must face fearsome opponents over the course of the next eight nights. But can Hershel vanquish the shadows and bring the community together once again?
Directed by Gretchen Wirges and Leora Sapon-Shevin
