- **Event Description**: Join Amy Tobin for an irreverent take on the Jewish holiday of PurimAbout this EventThis is a stripped-down lounge act that reveals the fear, hope, and heroism in the biblical Book of Esther. The story features such old-timey ideas as an idiot king with cruel advisors; xenophobic decrees targeting innocent people; and an autocrat obsessed with his own golden scepter.Can an ancient cosplay myth give 21st century citizens any guidance? Can you have fun when the world is upside down? Surrender to an annual ritual of messy release and mayhem.Costumes encouraged. Wear your sparkling and transgressive best.Doors 5:30pm/ Show at 6pm*Note this show is geared towards adults and may not be appropriate for children under 13.About A performer, writer, and vocalist who often works from Jewish sources, Amy Tobin has produced and created dozens of shows and experiences in the Bay Area.
