Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins presented by Strawdog Theatre Company at Chicago Loop Synagogue

Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins

Chicago Loop Synagogue
16 S. Clark St. Chicago

A traveling troupe of actors comes to town to find no one celebrating Hanukkah. They must put on a show to save the holiday! Will they bring back the spirit of Hanukkah to the town? Will Hershel of Ostropol outsmart the goblins who haunt the old synagogue? In this adaptation of the Caldecott Honor-winning book, the story comes to life with music, puppets and a little bit of magic for families of all ages to enjoy.

"...Strawdog Theatre, producing Hershel in conjunction with Chicago Loop Synagogue, does a masterful job interpreting Eric Kimmel’s 1989 children’s book, adapted by Michael Dailey. (This is the sixth time they’ve presented the show but the first in this location.) Even in the small performance venue, the performers make great use of their space, quickly changing from character to character, jumping back and forth in time."
