Rabbi Deborah Zecher Celebrates the American Songbook

Temple Beth Tikvah welcomes Scholar-In-Residence Rabbi Deborah Zecher, November 10 & 11. Friday night, during the 7:15p Shabbat service, she will present “Sermon in a Song,” — a lively, interactive musical program. Saturday evening’s event begins with dinner and Havdalah at 6:00p, followed by Rabbi Zecher’s presentation “Broadway Bible” — a program that combines beloved show tunes with familiar Biblical and midrashic tales. It’s torah study from a completely different perspective!

Rabbi Deborah Zecher has been singing all of her life, primarily in the synagogue. She is the Rabbi Emerita of Hevreh of Southern Berkshire, after having served as Rabbi and Leader of Music from 1992-2014. She is a graduate of Brandeis U. and was ordained by the Hebrew Union College – Jewish Institute of Religion in NYC.

Rabbi Zecher now performs Cabaret all over the country. She is a member of the Adult Cabaret Workshop at the Berkshire Music School, performed with Cabaret-to-Go, at Don’t Tell Mama’s in New York City and at the National Cabaret Conference at Yale where she was coached by such cabaret luminaries as Amanda McBroom, Tovah Feldshuh and Julie Wilson.

All weekend events take place at Temple Beth Tikvah, 196 Durham Rd., Madison, CT. All programs are open to the Community & Free with TBT membership.
On Saturday evening a contribution is requested from non-members. To Register / RSVP call the TBT office at 203-245-7028 or office@tbtshoreline.org .
