    Animated retelling of the Purim story from the viewpoint of a pretty cool Esther.
    "Imagine yourself in the middle of something awful. Someone is going to have to take a stand to set things right. Sometimes...that someone...is YOU."
    By Vanessa Hidary aka "The Hebrew Mamita"

  • The Shlomones - Good Groggin' Purim 2012
    If you grew up liking  the Grateful Dead, forgive the liberties taken and have a good laugh.
    Better yet, as further borrowing is the sincerest form of flattery, copy their lyrics and do a version of their spoof at your shul!
