Becoming Israel: an exploration of the name ‘Israel’ and its political and personal relevance, is now touring nationally. Three parallel lives intertwine to discover their shared story and their common name—Israel—“The One Who Struggles with God”. Leah, a Biblical wife, meets Rachel, a Holocaust survivor, and Jake, a young American on his first trip to Israel. Fusing sacred scripture with contemporary stagecraft, Becoming Israel examines the intersection between individual identity and collective memory, inviting audiences for a closer look at the legacy of Israel in a global reality.
Like a Prayer: a re-telling of the biblical stories that explore the origins of prayer. Awaken the experience of praying with mystic tales, instrumental interludes, and the art of the spoken word.
One Giant Leap: a Passover-themed show for 4-10 year olds. The Red Sea splits open but who will jump first into the waters of the unknown? Make One Giant Leap into one of the world’s oldest stories and discover miracles, just in time for Passover. Featuring actors, giant puppets, live music and audience interaction, Storahtelling brings Torah to life and spices up your Seder.

“Becoming Israel provided my congregation with a wonderful opportunity to witness Jacob’s ancient struggle as an inner conflict that is part of us today. Storahtelling makes the past come alive.”
Rabbi Gregory S. Marx
