Festival comes to synagogue

Equally mirth-inducing was a snippet of comedian Bennett Arron's "Jewelsh" routine about about being Jewish and Welsh.

Also featured was congregant and event organiser David Neville's own festival production, Kaddish for Pinter.

"It was wonderful to have such a mix of talent and energy in our shul hall - and for the eighth year running," Mr Neville said.

Audience numbers were swelled by a coach-load of Glasgow Jewish community members and many non-Jewish locals, who also enjoyed tours of the synagogue led by Rabbi David Rose and David Goldberg.
