[HANASHIR:7793] Re: Purimspiel ideas

[lee <ldaum...>]

Hi Jonathan:

I am the Cantorial Soloist at Congregation B'nai Torah in Sudbury, Mass. and 
have been investigating possible material for Purimshpiel as well.  I was 
wondering how you liked Norman Roth's Shpiel.

Also Have you seen Billy Dreskin's material.  If not, his e-mail address is 
ayakeh (at) cloud9(dot)net .  He has a number of different themes and has a 
demo tape available.

B'shalom

  Hello All,

  I am writing to to you in order to gather ideas for this year's Purimspiel at 
my Jewish day school. I am the music teacher at Brandeis Hillel Day School in 
San Francisco, a K-8 school.

  Last year we performed Norman Roth's ' A Beatle's Purim' with modifications 
to suit the format of a day school school assembly. Basically, each class was 
assigned a song to sing while several actors performed the Megillah vignettes. 

  I am currently looking for ideas for this year. On the table is a Disney 
script. I wonder if it would be accepted by the middle schoolers. Norman Roth 
also wrote a Rock and Roll script. Has anyone performed it or seen it?

   I would appreciate any ideas that come to your minds. Feel free to email me 
privately at jcferris (at) hotmail(dot)com(dot)

  Thanks,

  Jonathan Ferris
