The Adventures of SENDER the KLOPPER
Back in the old country, the klopper went house-to-house through the shtetl, knocking on shutters with a wooden hammer, calling people to prayer.
In this unique one-man show, Steve Klaper assumes the role of 18th century troubadour-raconteur Sender the Klopper, paying homage to his family’s original vocation as he explores what it means to be a 21st century maggid and klopper, rapping on the shuttered hearts of modern American Jews with his guitar. Drawing on diverse traditions of story and melody, Sender the Klopper will take you on an unforgettable journey, where the old world meets the new world like a long-long friend.
