Gitl faces the New World with strength and grace! \nSESSION 2: Crossing Delancey (watch here)– Izzy Grossman faces two romantic choices reflecting two conflicting aspects of her life…uptown world where she works and the traditional world of her grandmother where Izzy lives on the Lower East Side.

SUMMARY:Selichot Service
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our beautiful Selichot services Saturday night\, September 13\, from 8:00 to 9:00\, preceded by a lovely collation generously sponsored by our Sisterhood.Selichot is about getting ready for our High Holiday season by hearing the beautiful songs\, reciting the familiar prayers\, feeling the sacred and serious mood—and sharing it all with our beloved community.In addition\, we are going to have a conversation around this question: When is a light touch the right response to a heavy world? We all know about the Coldplay moment this summer. That brief moment\, caught on camera\, destroyed careers\, reputations\, marriages\, families. Literally the opposite of light\, humorous\, or funny.Yet when Astronomer responded to this deeply painful moment\, it did so with a brief appearance by Gwyneth Paltrow\, who herself had been married to Coldplay’s lead singer\, Chris Martin\, with whom she had two children. Her words were light\, funny\, dry\, wry—and were very well received. The overwhelming reaction was that Gwyneth Paltrow’s piece landed and effectively enabled the company to move on.We will watch the clip of the Coldplay moment and Gwyneth Paltrow’s words and ask: why did it land so well\, did you have any reservations about it\, and what can it teach us about how to engage our world today? When things are heavy\, when and how do we go light? \nJoin us in Reisman Hall or via livestream here. \nView the songsheet here. \nView our service booklet here. \nView the Coldplay moment & Gwenyth Platrow’s words here. \n\n
