The Night of Light - A Hanukah Play #234275

The Sitting room in a Jewish home on the first evening of the Feast of Hanukah. In the center of the room stands a table, at which are seated a boy of eight and a girl of ten intently gazing into books before them. Near the table is a rocking chair occupied by the children's mother, who is reading a book. In one corner of the room stands a smaller table with a samovar and tea-cups, while in another corner is the candelabrum holding the Hanukah candles ready to be lit. On the walls are hung: pictures of prominent Jewish characters. A number of chairs and other usual furniture are also found in the room.
