Culinary Cabaret
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
The Thalia Follies returns to Symphony Space for the fourth year in a row to take on a meaty subject: food.
The political cabaret series, created by Isaiah Sheffer and Martin Sage, includes a number of sketches that speak directly to members of the tribe. The Food Follies includes songs about Zabar’s, Artie’s Delicatessen, egg creams and a “Shiksa’s Seder.” There is also a tribute to beloved New York City restaurants that are no longer with us.
Symphony Space, Leonard Nimoy Thalia theater, 2537 Broadway (at 95th St.); Nov. 19, 6:30 p.m. &, 8:30 p.m.; $25, $20 members, $30 the day of the show. (212-864-1414 or www.symphonyspace.org)
I’m personally matching all gifts to the Forward, up to $36,000. Can I match your gift now?
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
