The Bible Players are a team of edutainers using improv and comedy to teach Jewish values to all ages. Over the course of their five-day stay in the Cleveland Jewish community, they were able to touch over 250 students, parents, congregants, and community educators as well as our Cleveland ShinShinim. They performed their shows and did workshops at Mandel Jewish Day School, Gross Schechter Day School, Fuchs Mizrachi Day School, @Akiva, Congregation B’nai Jeshurun, Temple Israel Ner Tamid, Beth Israel-The West Temple, and the Jewish Education Center.

Their energy and commitment to helping make Jewish themes and values come alive for participants were evident in each setting and at each show and workshop.
