I’ve been working here long enough to know that most Jewish video spoofs are terrible. The jokes are corny. The lighting and sound is terrible. The editing job is so miserable that you don’t understand how they didn’t realize that their video should have been two minutes shorter. Overall, a bunch of “total waste of time” videos.
Thankfully, the people at Shalom Sesame exist to show that creativity and Jewish holidays can go hand in hand. With the first seder two weeks from tonight (yeah, you heard me), we might as well start off the season with a cool little video.
If you like Les Miserables, then this video is for you. When you’re done, feel free to watch Kveller.com’s awesome Passover video as well.
seder
Pronounced: SAY-der, Origin: Hebrew, literally “order”; usually used to describe the ceremonial meal and telling of the Passover story on the first two nights of Passover. (In Israel, Jews have a seder only on the first night of Passover.)
