Baby, You Can Spin My Dreidel

For proof that Jewish holiday parties just keep getting hipper, look no further than the Hanukkah celebration at Kehilath Israel Synagogue (10501 Conser in Overland Park). It’s called Baby, You Can Spin My Dreidel, and starting at 8 p.m., guests can schmooze and booze with the assistance of a full open bar and tapas. At 9 p.m., New York stand-up comedian Joel Chasnoff will provide laughs. Later, DJ Sheppa of Nomathmatics will have partiers breaking out dance moves; those who prefer a little more quiet can seek refuge at the poker tables. The party goes till a respectable 1 a.m. The price of tickets — $10 per person or $18 per couple — covers drinks and food. RSVP to jenny@kisyn.org.
