Schedule of Events for Scholar-in-Residence Weekend with Rabbi Barbara Symons - November 21 through 23, 2025
Shabbat morning, 11/22. Rabbi Barbara Symons will lead us through an exploration of both the traditional and new haftarah texts for that morning (the Torah portion for that Shabbat is Toldot in Genesis). We begin live at 9:00 AM, with bagels and other breakfast treats, and at 9:15 for those joining remotely.
Saturday afternoon, 11/22. Join us at 4:00 PM for light refreshments, a moving Havdalah service, and, in between, a chance to learn how the “Prophetic Voices” project has created sacred texts for many more life-cycle moments, and calendric observances – in a uniquely Jewish voice – that allows us, as individuals, to strengthen our spirituality and commitment to tikkun olam – the repair of the world in God’s name, bring us together in new and powerful ways.
Sunday morning 11/23 – Join us at 10:30 AM, over bagels and schmears and coffee, for a session open to all, but speaking especially to our 6th and 7th graders and their families, about how utilizing the materials in “Prophetic Voices” can help to build a strong central focus for the entire service and celebration.

Neil Diamond Musical, A Beautiful Noise, Sunday, June 23, 2026 at 6:30 pm
Beautiful Noise is a jukebox musical based on the life and music of Neil Diamond. Titled for Diamond's 1976 album of the same name, A Beautiful Noise was written by Anthony McCarten and produced by Ken Davenport and Bob Gaudio. The musical is structured around a series of therapy sessions during which Diamond reacts to his lyrics as they are read by his psychiatrist from a second-hand copy of The Complete Lyrics of Neil Diamond. In a June 19, 2022 interview with The Boston Globe McCarten said: “She opens the book, and all 60 years of his songwriting and all that exploration pours out into a majestic musical collage, and once unloosed from the book, the songs take on lives of their own.
