Temple Judea Honors Sydney and David Schaecter at annual Gala

On April 13, Temple Judea, one of Miami’s largest Reform congregations, honored Holocaust survivor David Schaecter, and his wife Sydney Schaecter, at their premier fundraising Gala at the synagogue, 5500 Granada Blvd., in Coral Gables. Entitled L’Chaim, To Life!, the sold out Gala celebrated the lives of these two unique individuals. 350 people attended and the Gala raised $230,000. Gala Co-Chairs were Linda & Michael Bittel and Bella & Jay Newmark.

Holocaust survivor David Schaecter is a founding member of the Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach. Born in a small village in Czechoslovakia, Schaecter was a young boy when the Nazis rose to power in Germany and is the only member of his family to survive the Holocaust. Sydney Schaecter’s contributions to the South Florida Jewish community have been recognized for more than 40 years dating back to her board leadership positions at the South Dade area office of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation and the Alper JCC.

Now celebrating 70 years of Jewish Learning and Living in Coral Gables, Temple Judea is one of Miami’s largest Reform synagogues with approximately 600 member families.

JCAT Community Presents "The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940"

It’s not a musical, but it’s definitely a comedy!

May 7-19
By John Bishop, Directed by John Ferry
A large Westchester mansion with secret passages, a blizzard, a theatrical troupe and a homicidal maniac on the loose – what could possible go wrong?
This rip-roaring farce is a non-stop barrage of laughter as those assembled (or at least those who aren't killed off) untangle the mystery of the "Stage Door Slasher." is sure to please all audiences.
"…enormous fun…Its strength comes in part from the sheer diamond wit and diamante showbiz glitter of Bishop's writing. Even his corn is succulently served." —NY Post.
"…Bishop gives us a nakedly silly and relentlessly convoluted murder-mystery plot, with twist piled on twist till you have to give way and start laughing at the silliness…it's hugely enjoyable." —Village Voice.
"MURDERS is the intelligent person's kind of nonsense." —NY Magazine.
