Eat and Run
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Tired of Seders that drag on for hours? Up for a challenge? The Nice Jewish Girls Gone Bad are inviting their fans to partake in the 60 Second Seder Contest. In two shows during their current run at The Zipper Factory Theater, the cabaret queens — who perform music, burlesque and comedy — will provide participants with all the supplies they need to make a Seder; but in order to win, it must be done in a minute or less. Those interested in entering the contest must contact the ladies in advance.
The Zipper Factory Theater, 337 W. 37th St. (at Ninth Ave.); $25; through April 26. (212-352-3101, www.nicejewishgirlsgonebad.com or www.thezipperfactory.com)
Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
