Top 3 reasons to go to Mama Doni's 'Passover Palooza' this weekend

Reason #3 to go to Passover Palooza!FREE stuff!  Lots and lots of it!  FREE matzo from the store next to the factory, free prizes like macaroons, Mama Doni's famous "matzola" (matzo granola, made according to a recipe in her new book, Get Cooking! A Jewish American Family Cookbook & Rockin' Mama Doni Celebration), and assorted chocolate treats, along with giveaway CDs, posters, t-shirts, and download cards for a free Mama Doni Passover song.Reason #2 for going to Passover-Palooza:If you go to a lot of kiddie concerts, you  may have noticed that they tend to be mom-heavy.  But, something about the promise of a factory tour really brought out the dads last year.  See how the huge machines operate, watch matzo being made right in front of your eyes, and even taste a warm square, straight out of the oven. In fact, last year, the tour proved so popular that families had to be divided into groups in order to go through, and there was an up to a half-hour wait time.  Still, it was worth it!View the list »
Reason #1 for coming to Passover Palooza:There will be a FREE concert!  And Mama Doni doesn't work alone!  Kids are invited to sing along, jump along, dance along and, at one point, even get on stage to join in the fun.Enjoy holiday-themed songs like "Mission Immatzoble," "Rasta in Pasta" (a reggae tune about what can and can't be eaten during Passover), and "Disco Dayeinu."  Plus don't forget "Jewish Cowgirl," "Mazel Tov," and "Shabbat Shaboom."

The band celebrates Jewish culture with irrepressible zest in its interactive family rock concerts filled with catchy pop songs that break the mold of traditional Jewish music. Quirky, offbeat, and unpredictable, The Mama Doni Band offers up a contagious and unexpected blend of reggae, rock, disco, Latin, klezmer and "Jewgrass."
