Strawdog’s 9th Annual Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins December 5, 2026
Strawdog Theatre Company returns once again with its 9th Annual production of Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins. Hershel and their troupe are exhausted. They’ve been traveling for weeks, they’re cold and tired AND it’s the first night of Hanukkah! What better way to warm up then by telling the story of Hershel’s grandfather and how he saved Hanukkah by outwitting the great King of the Goblins . Based on the award winning book by Eric Kimmel, Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins is an hour long family holiday show with live music, puppets, and lots and lots of goblins.
The production will run November 28 through December 27, 2026. Shows are Fridays and Saturdays at 1:00pm and 4:00pm at Raven Theatre at 6157 N Clark St, Chicago, IL 60660. Tickets are live now at strawdog.org. Tickets are $40 for adults and $20 for children
School and community groups can reach out to boxoffice@strawdog.org for group sales or private performances
