It’s time for the Fifth (!!!) Annual Purimshpiel! Brought to you by your favorite (and only) Boston-based queer Jewish performance troupe, Ain't Mitzvahavin'. We're bringing the Book of Esther back to the stage and it’s going to be bigger, better, gayer, and more gender bent than you can even imagine. Celebrate one of the most fun holidays in the Jewish calendar with set dressing, crossdressing, and undressing.
Costumes are encouraged for the annual audience costume contest. The best dressed audience member will win an amazing prize package.
Come and experience the joy of Purim with your local queer Jewish community! All are welcome; you won’t want to miss it.
This event is 18+

LATE SEATING POLICY:
Late seating is not guaranteed for comedy or theater.
Late seating will end after the opener, if there is one, and when the headliner begins.
WHY LIMITED LATE SEATING: Due to the architecture of our space, the entrance is next to the stage and it is disruptive to the performer to enter late. We will seat you if there is an opener but once the headliner starts, you may be allowed to sit in the lobby but will not be allowed to enter. Please know this is for the best experience for the artist. No refunds for late entry.
START TIME: Performances will begin no later than 15 minutes after stated show time.
NO REFUNDS.
WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBILITY: Please enter through the glass foyer to the right of our entrance, press B and you will arrive in the Basement for Saloon and The Rockwell. Please call the host at (617) 628-4444 for assistance.
