A Simple Twist of Fate - Purimspeil


This story follows the scroll of Esther from Purim.

From Vashti (Women Rule The World) to the head of the Harem that Eshter is in (Welcome to the Harem).

From the plotting guards overheard by Mordechai (It’s no fun being nice) to you-know-whow (Haman’s version of a simple twist of fate). You will have a wonderful time!

Length of musical including songs and story 75 minutes.

The story and songs are in English except a few words in Chag Samayach - Chag Purim and Baruch Mordechai.
