Shul of Rock: Megillat Esther

A Virtual Purim Event

Mar 17 2022, 7:30PM to 9:00PM in the Zoom.
NOTE: This event has already occurred.

This year’s Purim event brings together legendary songs, legendary artists and legendary performances as the soundtrack to Megillat Esther. Conceived as a Virtual Live Concert using the artists’ original performances, you will eventually give in to the urge to sing and dance along. You’ll also gain a deeper understanding of the Megillah’s characters and events through party songs, drinking songs, break-up songs, advice songs, relationship songs, fighting-back songs and celebratory songs from a 70-year-old catalogue of rock, pop, ballads, anthems, country & western and more, presented by the same international ensemble that gave us Motown Megillat Esther and Megillat Ruth: The Musical.

Participants are encouraged to dress in the spirit of the event, whether it’s Shushan Royal business casual from 400 BCE or dressed for your favourite concert or theatre venue from the 1950’s forward (that also makes a really good virtual background).

Pre-registration is required to access the Zoom link. To register, click here>>.
