Manchester Jewish Museum

This month's focus is Pesach (Passover) which is a the 8 day widely observed Jewish festival starting on the 5th April, that commemorates the Israelites departure from ancient Egypt. Come join us as we look at a couple of ‘kosher for Pesach’ recipes!

In this session, you will get the opportunity to meet writer and creative director Julia Pascal, whose show A Manchester Girlhood will be performed as part of the museum’s Synagogue Scratch season. Hear from Julia about the stories embedded into the show and how textiles play an important part in the characters’ lives – from wedding dresses to rag dolls. Julia will invite the group to develop some props for the performance, so be part of helping to bring to life the show!
