NAME
A 2026 LABA BAY AREA GROUP SHOW
Art Dance Theater Music Readings Teachings
Over the past year, the 2026 LABA BAY AREA fellows have collectively engaged with ancient Jewish texts on the subject of “NAME” in LABA’s open-minded and free-spirited house of study. They encountered old stories and ideas and then created new art and culture in response.
Join us for an intimate experience of these creative works, and a teaching of some of the texts that inspired them, on Sunday, November 15, 11:00 am - 5:00 pm at the Magnes Collection in Berkeley.
Tickets coming soon!
Two old friends seek to find out in NAME GAME.
What's in a Jewish Name?
A playful and profound exploration of naming, identity, sexuality, and reinvention told through monologues, circus, and dance with a vaudeville flair. Come discover how veteran performers Sara Felder and Yehuda Hyman found their names—and themselves.
Directed by Ronit Muszkatblit. Featuring visual design by Naomie Kremer and original music by Forest Reid.
Produced by Elissa Strauss.
