Esther - Production



The story of Esther was a perfect choice for the women of the Efrat/Gush Etzion Raise Your Spirits Summer Stock Company.

As terror encompassed an entire world, as people across the globe feared for their lives because of the horrendous plans of Emperors of Evil, the women of Raise Your Spirits refused to be defeated.

Their goal with “ESTHER and the Secrets in the King’s Court” was to give their audiences the courage to face the challenges of a frightening world, and the hope that indeed good could triumph over evil.

“ESTHER and the Secrets in the King’s Court” is the second production of the Efrat/Gush Etzion Raise Your Spirits Summer Stock Company, and the first original musical written by Raise Your Spirits’ Producer Sharon Katz, Director Toby Klein Greenwald and Choreographer Arlene Chertoff. The music for “ESTHER” was composed mainly by Rivka Epstein-Hattin.
