Manchester Jewish Museum

On Sunday, 26 March, Ellie Silver will premiere her new work-in-progress TV sitcom, "Beth's Din", at MJM during the first evening event of this Spring's "Synagogue Scratch" season. We speak to Ellie about her journey as a Mancunian comedian and get a sneak peek at her upcoming show!

Audiences will have the opportunity to be the first people to see a project up on its feet, get to know the local talented individuals who are telling Jewish Mancunian stories and be at the heart of helping to develop their material.

This December, Tanya Truman and Deli Segal will bring their hilarious comedy show, Pickle, to MJM as part of Synagogue Nights, a season of intimate evening events in our synagogue. We've recently spoken to them both about this darkly comic piece. 

On Sunday, 6 November, Manchester Jewish Museum will welcome the London-based theatre maker,  Anna Clover, in her debut solo comedy show, Going Deutsch. Anna talks to us about her semi-biographical piece and the emotional story behind it. 

Manchester Jewish Museum will once again be celebrating Jewish music and art with the new season of Synagogue Nights: intimate performances in the 1874 Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue. From the mellow sounds of jazz and entertaining comedy shows to the greatest of classical hits, this season’s line-up celebrates diverse identities within the Jewish community.
