Our Current Season


You don't have to be Jewish to love Jewish Theatre Grand Rapids!

Jewish Theatre Grand Rapids has chosen wonderful productions to share with you this season. Though our productions may have Jewish content, they are always universal in appeal. Our goal is to enrich the Jewish experience in West Michigan, while informing, educating, and engaging all our patrons. It's live theatre to learn, love and laugh with!

PERFORMANCES are mostly on Thursdays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., and Sundays at 3 p.m. Some shows may also include a Wednesday 7:30 performance. We have a new online subscription and ticketing system. If the PURCHASE TICKETS button is enabled on the sidebar you may purchase tickets online for any of our productions at any time. Even Season Flex Pass holders may make show date and seat selections using our online ticketing portal.

Esther, The Musical

Jan. 30, Feb 1, 6 & 8 @7:30

Feb 2 & 9 @3:00

Written by Lori Jacobs
Directed by Pam Steers, Musical Direction by Alex Hamel, Choreography by Owen Smith, Stage Management by Laurie Hamilton

Esther, The Musical is written and composed by local playwright Lori Jacobs. It is the classical Biblical story with a twist and a true fun-filled Purim Speil. With original songs based on Kletzmer Songs, Rap, Showtunes, Country, Ragtime and Pop, this show is a rapid, surefire, farcical, tongue-in-cheek-retelling of the rise of Esther and her salvation of the Jews in Persia in 483 B.C.E. Come join the party!
