Strawdog Theatre Company: Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins

Hershel of Ostropol, a recurring hero-prankster figure in Yiddish folklore, saves a shul from a goblin infestation in this family-friendly Jewish-holiday musical, adapted by Michael Dailey and Jacob Combs from Eric Kimmel’s award-winning 1989 children’s book.  Spencer Ryan Diedrick directs a cast led by Rebecca Keeshin as Hershel. The show is performed live twice a day on weekends through December 20; tickets start at $25.
