SUMMARY:Megillah Madness: A Very Wicked Purim
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Wicked good time as we explore Purim’s biggest questions: Who’s truly the most popular? What happens when Esther meets King Ahasuerus? Will the Jews dance through strife\, or will Haman’s loathing steal the spotlight? \nCome see the story unfold as the Jews define their own destiny in this Wicked Purim spectacular!
