It’s Hanukkah, and Hannah Hartman can’t stop Hiccupping!

Hannah tries peanut butter (Mrs. Morella) and pomegranate juice with mint (Mrs. Doukas). As days go by, the menorah candles are lit, gifts exchanged, and latkes served. Hannah resolves her dilemma by tap-dancing across the stage (“TAP Hic! TAP Hic! TAP Hic!”). "Next time you’ll probably get the Sukkot sneezes," her little…
