In this magical performance, Mozaik will musically tell the story in three
suites of  "The Hebrews Exodus from Egypt", "Splitting the Red Sea", and
the
"Receiving the Torah from Moses at Mount Sinai". A visual show will
accompany the music and dance, incorporating slides by photographer
Sebastion "Suki" Belaustegui from Argentina and shadow puppetry by
Christine
Marie of Shadow and Light.

Mozaik - MoZaiK is a 10 piece improvisational band from Berkeley, CA,
drawing from the roots of Jewish soul music and their own world wanderings.
They blend the sounds of Klezmer, ancient Middle Eastern melodies with jazz
sensibilities and a jamming approach that makes MoZaik "Able to make a
grandmother dance on a table and a teenager scream for more."  The band
includes: guitar/mandolin/saz, piano, voice, violin, saxophone/flute/bass
clarinet, bass, percussion, and more.

Pharoah's Daughter - From NYC, a recent sellout at the Berkeley Jewish
Music Festival. Pharoah's Daughter is a six piece eclectic groove ensemble with
oud, guitars, tabla, and flutes.  On Knitting Factory Records, Pharoah's
Daughter has created a brand of music that combines religious, Jewish,
spiritual music with world beat, and the intense lyrical detail of a pop
singer/songwriter.


The Puppet Players are a a multi-media, musical, and ritual theatre group.
They will deliver deep teachings through laughter, puppetry and poetry
about
Shavuot, the new moon, ritual and celebration.  The Puppet People
incorporate all original music, live action theatre, hand puppets, masks,
shadow puppets and more to involve the audience in a multi-sensory
experience for the whole family.

This one-night-only performance will take place on Wedneday, May 30 at
7:00pm at the Julia Morgan Theatre, 2640 College, Avenue, Berkeley, CA.
Advance tickets are available by calling 925-798-1300.  Ticket prices: $12
