Brooklyn Brandeis Society celebrates Purim in topsy-turvy fashion
The Brooklyn Brandeis Society hosted its second annual Purim Bash as its members donned costumes for the retelling of the story of Queen Esther on Monday night at the Brooklyn Bar Association.
“It’s my honor as president of the Brooklyn Brandeis Society to welcome you all to our second annual Purim Bash,” said Hon. Miriam Cyrulnik.
Part of the Purim tradition includes a “spiel,” or an often failed attempt at humor and/or cleverness. The Brandeis Society’s version of this tradition included a parody of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “We Are The Champions,” prepared by Brandeis Society Vice President Andrew Fallek.
