Main Stage Performers
Established in 2006, Dance Israeli! captures the excitement and flavor of Israeli dance and brings it to live audiences in Northeast Ohio. Delivering a fresh folk-based approach to performance, this professional group delivers Israeli culture with every step!
For three decades, Funk A Deli (formerly Yiddishe Cup), led by clarinet/sax player Bert Stratton, has been entertaining audiences with a lively assortment of klezmer and other traditional Jewish music, fused with the very best of R&B and soul. Their repertoire will be sure to have you dancing away!
