A Tony-Themed Shavuot Dinner!
Featuring ‘Cheesecago’ and other theatre puns. Read More
The Tony Awards are this Sunday, unfortunately, the same evening as the second night of Shavuot. Observant theatre fans are figuring out how they’ll make it work, and one friend told me that she’s throwing a party for her friends who won’t be able to watch that night for religious reasons. She’s shared the menu with Jewcy, and the puns are as strong as the dairy meal seems delicious!
