Join us as we celebrate Burbank Temple Emanu El's 77th anniversary with a concert fundraiser

"MOSES! A SCHTICK in TIME" is a new musical comedy with music and lyrics by Rhonda Kess (OkayBetterBest) and direction by Mark Schneider (Hamilton, Miss Saigon). Come and enjoy selections from this new broadway bound musical that takes a humours look at a serious point in L.A. history. The story highlights the resilience of the Jews and Latinos of Boyle Heights East L. A. as they face a highway project that threatens the Breed Street shul and a famous neighborhood tamale shop. Moses makes a surprise Earthly return and sets some things in motion. 

Join us for a night of heart and laughter followed by a wine & cheese reception! 

Did you know? 
In the early 20th century, Boyle Heights a neighborhood in East LA, was a center of Jewish, Mexican and Japanese immigrant life. The Boyle Heights Jewish community ended up leaving due to several freeway constructions and banks refusing to provide them with home loans. But fast forward to today, and the community is bound for a resurgence in Jewish life. Thanks to a $14.9 million grant, the Breed Street Shul building is currently undergoing restoration for reuse. 

And Breed Street Shul is not the only synagogue that needs some love and care rennovation: BTEE is still working on raising the funds to fix our roof!  The proceeds from this event will continue to support our "Raise the Roof" fundraiser and help ensure a thriving Jewish community in this part of LA too! 

Please join us for a laugh, a cry, maybe even an extra donation to the temple! Enter your information below to get your tickets and/or purchase an ad that will be featured in the concert program.
