The first annual Repair Festival is dedicated to presenting new theater, music, dance, and other live performances by artists whose work builds community by drawing on the Jewish value of Tikkun Olam (healing and restoring the world).

for a full listing of events and performances.

All performances are followed by a talk back between the performers and the audience.

The Repair: Tikkun Olam Festival of New Performance would like to thank our media sponsor, The Jewish Daily Forward for their support. The Forward is a legendary name in American journalism and a revered institution in American Jewish life. Launched as a Yiddish-language daily newspaper on April 22, 1897, the Forward entered the din of New York's immigrant press as a defender of trade unionism and moderate, democratic socialism.

Repairing the World: Tikkun Olam reflects the JCC's commitment to empowering our community to better the lives of others, and directly serve some of our city's neediest children and families. There are a variety of opportunities for people to serve their community in ways that connect to Jewish culture and history, and we are motivated by the pressing issues of the day.
