SUMMARY:Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins
DESCRIPTION:Presented by City of Fairfax Theatre Company in partnership with Pozez JCC \n\n\n\nExperience the magic of Hanukkah with “Hershel & the Hanukkah Goblins” – a story that will light up your holiday season!\n\n\n\n“Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins” tells the story of Hershel of Ostropol\, a clever traveler who arrives in a village haunted by goblins that have been ruining Hanukkah celebrations for years. Determined to restore the holiday’s joy\, Hershel accepts the daunting challenge of spending eight nights in the old synagogue\, outsmarting the goblins who try to stop him. With each night\, the goblins grow larger and more fearsome\, but Hershel’s wit proves mightier than their strength. On the final night\, Hershel faces his greatest challenge yet: the King of the Goblins. Can he outsmart the Goblin King and light the candles\, saving Hanukkah for the village? A heartwarming and humorous tale about courage\, cleverness\, and the spirit of the season\, this play brings Eric Kimmel’s beloved story to life with vibrant characters\, thrilling encounters\, and a message of hope. \n\n\n\nHershel and the Hanukkah Goblins is best suited for ages 6 and up. \n\n\n\nDecember 5th at 7:30pm – Pay What You Can performance\, ASL interpretation providedDecember 6th at 7:30pmDecember 7th at 1:00pmDecember 7th at 7:30pmDecember 8th at 1:00 pmDecember 8th at 7:30pm \n\n\n\nDirected by Adam RessaProduced by Rebecca Kalant and Courtney MarshStage Managed by Kat Michalak

SUMMARY:La Nona Kanta—The Remarkable Life of Flory Jagoda
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Trio Sefardi \n\n\n\nA Concert in Commemoration of International Holocaust Remembrance Day \n\n\n\nJoin us for a special multi-media show by Trio Sefardi. “La Nona Kanta” is a tale of survival and courage that has significant relevance in today’s turbulent world. In filmed interviews\, Flory Jagoda\, who was an active member of Northern Virginia’s Jewish community\, tells the true story of how music helped her escape from Nazi-occupied Yugoslavia when she was a teenager; how she made a life in the United States; and how she turned the tragic fate of her family and Balkan Sephardic culture into a celebration of five centuries of faith and tradition\, giving meaning to the rest of her life\, and delighting audiences worldwide. After the show there will be a short discussion/question & answer session with the audience. \n\n\n\n“La Nona Kanta” spotlights the age-old existential threat of prejudice and hatred and is a moving testament to one person’s triumph over adversity that will leave you uplifted and hopeful. \n\n\n\nAges: 12+
