Tenathon 2025: Behind The New Stage
Step backstage at the Brooklyn Armory in the days before Tenathon 2025 and it becomes clear: this is no ordinary production. The space hums like a living heartbeat, alive with cables, lights, voices, and purpose. Every corner holds the weight of something extraordinary coming to life.
The Armory, with its soaring ceilings and storied architecture, has been transformed into a golden amphitheater of light. Rows of seats curve around a magnificent stage as lighting crews fine-tune every cue. The LED walls bathe the room in a soft, gilded glow, as if announcing that something historic is about to unfold.
For the Ten Yad committee, this moment is years in the making. What was once an intimate event for a few hundred is now stepping onto A New Stage, welcoming close to 2,000 people. “It was too beautiful to be limited,” shares a committee member, watching the final preparations. “We wanted more people to feel this magic in person. This is Ten Yad at its most magnificent.”
In the center of it all stands the stage, where legends and rising stars are rehearsing for a defining night in Jewish music. Mordechai Ben David and Avraham Fried, two voices that have carried the soul of our community for decades, will share the microphone with Elitzur and Shmuel Sukkot, two of Israel’s most electrifying new talents. Zusha’s soulful harmonies float through the room, bridging eras and styles. Together, they are crafting a medley that traces a journey from exile to redemption, a symphony of Jewish spirit.
This is the largest auction in Ten Yad’s history, with more than eighty prizes that dazzle not only for their beauty but for what they represent. Each ticket and entry builds something lasting: a Jewish home. “Every prize tells a story,” says one producer. “But it’s the stories behind the prizes, the kallahs walking to their chuppah with dignity and strength, that give the night its soul.”
A New Stage is a testament to the extraordinary generosity of the global Ten Yad community. It is a resounding declaration that Jewish homes deserve a chorus and that shared joy can fill a room of close to 2,000, sending its echoes far beyond the walls of the Armory.
Tonight, November 2 IY”H at 6:30 PM, the lights will rise, the music will soar, and names will be called. The stories will be written in real time.
