Rabbi Emeritus Arnie 
Sleutelberg. “We 
became friends over 
the years. I had the 
privilege of officiating 
the baby namings of 
their two children in 
New York and was 
invited to the Tony 
Awards the year 
Jeffrey’
s show Avenue Q won Best 
Musical.
“Twenty years ago, Jeffrey 
arranged for Shir Tikvah to 
purchase the premier night of Rent
when it came to the Fisher Theatre 
as a fundraiser. He was pleased 
Shir Tikvah was open and inclusive 
of all who wished to seek Jewish 

spiritual connection. For several 
years, he and I had been discussing 
creating another fundraiser when 
Hamilton comes to Detroit. I 
realized a huge undertaking like this 
would be more feasible if several 
nonprofits could share the initial 
financial commitment and ticket 
sales promotion, so I approached 
Upland Hills School, where I serve 
as chair of the board of trustees, 
and Beth Shalom of Traverse City, 
where I currently serve as their 
rabbi, to see if each would consider 
partnering with Shir Tikvah on 
Hamilton. Thus, all three nonprofits 
are beneficiaries of the Hamilton
premier fundraiser.”
