From 27 October to 17 November 2024
Manchester’s Jewish community recently celebrated 150 years of the Iberian Synagogue. It is continuing these celebrations by organising a series of cultural events this autumn. These include the sharing of Sephardic tales through Hasidic music and drama. Starting with a musical evening on 27 October in the company of Nani Vazane, a Ladino songwriter whose songs meet the emotional theatricality of flamenco. Other events at the festival include a concert by eclectic artist Dekel on 31 October, the singers of Vache Baroque on 3 November, a musical walk with Rabbi Danny Bergson on 10 November and the one-act play ‘Mathiarch’ by Jessica Litwak on 17 November.
