Mayor Zohran Mamdani wasn’t born when the nightlife impresario Michael Dorf cooked up his first “downtown Seder” in early 1991, fusing a performance vibe with a Passover meal to create a kind of art-meets-afikoman alternative to the traditional holiday celebration.
More than 30 years later, Mr. Mamdani was the first guest to speak at this year’s iteration of Mr. Dorf’s event on Monday night, giving a brief speech — and hearing it from a pair of hecklers, as his appearance drew criticism from some quarters and a last-minute cancellation of a featured performer.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani was reportedly heckled — by a critic who shouted “every Jewish organization is a target” — while the anti-Israel pol was speaking at a Passover seder event this week.
Hizzoner was referencing the recent spike in antisemitism, that he said “has caused enormous pain for so many Jewish New Yorkers,” when the unidentified person shouted from the back of the room Monday night, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency reported.
Other attendees at Jewish entrepreneur Michael Dorf’s 33rd annual “Downtown Seder” at the City Winery, which he owns, reportedly shushed the heckler after the brief outburst.
One person shouted in response, “Stop the xenophobia, let him speak.”
