See our wonderful online Purim Spiel at 7:15 PM on Thursday, Feb 25, based on Beatles songs. Script is by Stan Kaplowitz and virtual production by Devorah Tucker Fick. For a joyful Purim, please open the link for more information and to register. https://forms.gle/L5jFXPWrUijoT6Ko6.
Links to this viewing of the Spiel will be sent out the morning of Thursday, Feb 25. So in order to be sure that you receive this link, you will need to register no later than 9pm on February 24.
Registration for this showing is only open to members of Congregations Kehillat Israel and Shaarey Zedek in Lansing.
However, on Friday, February 26, the Spiel will be posted on Vimeo and you will be sent a link that may be shared with others. The primary difference between viewing it later and viewing it while it streams, is that you will only be able to submit comments via chat during the streamed performance.
We would also welcome donations to the Purim Spiel to help cover the costs including purchasing microphones and paying for labor for the production. (However unlike other years, we did not spend money one costumes or food.) We are listing donations in the program as follows. Platinah (Platinum) for $100+; Zahav (Gold) for $50+; Kesev (Silver) for $25+; and Nechoshet (Bronze) for $10. We have decided to not not approach businesses this year for ads in the program due to COVID-19.
Please send checks to Kehillat Israel, 2014 Forest Road, Lansing, MI 48910 with “Purim Spiel” in the memo line. Kehillat Israel keeps this money in a restricted fund used only for these expenses, including food purchased by both congregations when we were doing live performances
Please email Laurie Bechhofer at BechhoferL@gmail.com and Stan Kaplowitz kaplowi1@msu.edu no later than Monday, February 22nd to let us know the amount of your donation so you can be acknowledged in the program. Thank you in advance for your support!
