The New National Pastime Theater presents, back by popular demand, the only rock ‘n’ roll Hannukah musical on earth - HANNUKATZ THE MUSICAL!
See a new production in The National Pastime Theater's recently acquired Uptown theater. You’ve seen The Nutcracker, now see "the Wisecracker," more pa-rum-pa-pum-pumped full of Rock n Roll and laughs for the whole family than the holidays have ever been! Inspired by Terry Abrahamson's best-selling novel. HANNUKATZ THE MUSICAL is directed and choreographed by Shifra Werch, with music direction by Larry Rothbard. Featuring Wellington Da Silva in the title role of Hannukatz with the Moskowitz family: Maren Rosenberg as Emily, Isaac Samuelson as Josh, Rachel Pallante as Syl and Jordan Levin as Gil. The New National Pastime Theater is located within the rediscovered historic Masonic Hall in the Preston Bradley Center at 941 W Lawrence Ave. 4th Floor in Chicago. The curious and bold can discover us via the Red Line Lawrence El stop. Bus routes 36, 81, 145 and 151 are all within three blocks of the theater. Street parking is available or Weiss Hospital offers $5 all night parking two blocks south east for NPT guests (purchase parking passes at box office).
