The group has traveled and performed in over 25 countries all over Europe, the United States, South America and the Far East. An internationally acclaimed Israeli percussion phenomenon, the ten-member ensemble of young men and women with superhuman stamina and a flair for quirky humor, throw elements of "Stomp," "Blue Man Group," hora and hip-hop into a great big pot. Sheketak combines live alternative rock, body percussion and junkyard theatrics throwing everything into a huge rhythmic cauldron with the most exacting fury and whimsy. Tickets on sale at www.blumenthalcenter.org for $15 and $10. "This international touring company, which played to packed houses at the Chicago's Harris Theater for Music and Dance, is about making a big noise. Sheketak speaks the international language of pop with fluency and humor." --Chicago Sun Times Temple Israel Honors Margi Goldstein Saturday, May 17, 2008 9:30am We will be honoring Margi Goldstein for her years of dedicated service to Temple Israel and the Jewish Community.
