A One-Woman Performance: The Life and Loves of Selma Bondi Wise

We know Reverend Dr. Isaac Mayer Wise as the man who pioneered American Reform
Judaism, but what about the power behind the proverbial throne? Learn about
the two women who motivated and inspired him. His second wife, Selma Bondi
Wise (as performed by rabbinical student Rachael Houser) weaves the tale of
his adventuresome partnership with his first wife, Therese, and his unlikely
love story with Selma herself. Drawn from materials found in the American
Jewish Archives, Rachael reveals surprising and endearing secrets about the
private life of Isaac Mayer Wise and his wives. His illustrious career would
not have been possible without them.

_Please join us after the performance for some light bites, drinks and a Q &A
with Rachael about what inspired her to pursue this project._
