SARATOGA SPRINGS–Saratoga Jewish Community Arts (SJCA) will present, live on Zoom, The Braid’s performance of “For the Love of Animals,” Sunday, June 8, at 2 p.m. and Thursday, June 12, at 7 p.m.

The Braid describes this show as “captivating stories that shed a light on the Jewish soul—and you don’t have to love animals to resonate with them!” The Jewish tales about brief encounters and long-term relationships with animals, wild and domestic will be followed by a Q &A session with the performers.

“This unique art form sits at the intersection of storytelling and theatre, where professional actors perform true stories curated—or ‘braided’—around a theme,” remarked Phyllis Wang, coordinator of Saratoga Jewish Community Arts.

Pre-registration is required and may be obtained for June 8 at 2 p.m. at or for June 12 at 7 p.m. at
