Shterna and the Lost Voice in San Francisco

Join us for the Magid Ensemble’s Shterna and the Lost Voice, a captivating hero’s journey blending folklore, live original music, and mesmerizing visuals. This enchanting new folktale by Weaver draws inspiration from mythical stories of Elyahu Hanovi and Yiddish tradition.

Follow Shterna on her epic quest—from the shadowy realms of the dead to the celestial gardens of the immortal—as she seeks to restore her friend’s lost voice. The story unfolds through a stunning papercut crankie, accompanied by live klezmer music that brings every twist and turn to life. This dynamic performance is perfect for audiences of all ages!

This imaginative performance is presented by The Magid Ensemble (magid, meaning “storyteller” in Yiddish), a collaboration of award-winning klezmer musicians Mattias Kaufmann, Raffi Boden, and Rachel Leader, alongside Yiddishist storyteller Weaver and visual artist Kiah Raymond. Together, they weave sound, story, light, and shadow into an immersive storytelling experience that’s not to be missed!
