- Notes: A fantastic band fro a Purim Parade! Jessica Lurie, Reut Regev, Ira Temple, Matt Moran, Pam Fleming, April Centrone and more! Purim is about re-imagining. Our traditions can help us find ways to affirm life in the midst of the ongoing Covid pandemic. Scary times require joy, Masquerades, processions, pageantry, Megillah reading, and shared delicious treats are ancient technologies; communal methods used by Jews worldwide for making merry, letting loose and addressing fear, injustice and fury with play. It is the play in the depth of winter, the burlesque, the laughter at power that has renewed us for centuries, and our communities need this renewal. It’s a joy and laughter emergency, which is why JFREJ’s Purim event this year is called…EMERGENCY PURIM!!! We will be outside! Everyone masked and masquerading! There will be a short performance! There will be dancing! There will be a procession! There will be ways to participate virtually!
