“In God’s Bedroom”
Come and Hear from God as You Have Never Seen Her.
Arts & Performance,
Torah & Text
This one-woman, one-God show is about a passionate relationship between God—portrayed as a woman who is lonely and wants to be loved—and David, poet, warrior, alpha male, charismatic political leader, king. Delivering a powerful theatrical interpretation of the astounding book of Samuel, the show features God, King David, Saul, Samuel, Jonathan, Batsheva, the moon, and some sheep, in a comedic, tragic, song-filled and physical theater piece, which has toured Australia, Limmud UK, Israel, and the US.

Creating Contemporary Midrash:

This session is about creating contemporary midrash, based on the show “In God’s Bedroom.” (The show was presented on both Friday and Saturday.) Learn the sources behind the show! Texts will include Samuel, Judges, Song of Songs, and more. We especially recommend this session if you saw the show!
3GH Workshop
Living in A Post Holocaust World
Arts & Performance,
Global History & Culture,
Identity & Responsibility
This is an experiential workshop for third-generation descendants of Holocaust survivors and those who are charged with an imperative to act as a result of living in a post-Holocaust world. Participants will be invited to engage in a conversation about identity, relevance, trauma, and action. This is an open-ended, exploratory process using creative modalities (psychodrama and art-making). No experience is necessary, only a desire to explore the topic in a safe and creative space.
