FAQs

What is Panoply?

• Panoply is a multi-media trivia game night. It is played in different communities with different variations. Keep reading for more information about Panoply at Mount Sinai Jewish Center.

How does registration work?

• Panoply is played in teams of 10. You can sign up as a fully formed team, as a partial team, or as an individual. Our wonderful Registration Committee will match you with other players so all teams have exactly 10 people on them.

What should I wear to this event?

• Panoply is a “black tie optional” affair. Some people come in gowns and tuxedos, others come in costume to match that year’s theme. This year's theme is "Reinvented" -- come wearing lab gear or your most innovative outfit!

What is the timeline for the evening?

• The evening begins with a cocktail hour (come in, find your table, enter your tickets for the raffle and Chinese auction), then the first of three rounds of trivia commence! Each of the three rounds of trivia is broken up with a delicious food course and raffle/Chinese auction where you can win amazing prizes!

I definitely want to help out with planning the event, but I also want to play! Can I do both?

• Yes! Panoply takes a tremendous amount of volunteers to help make the entire evening run smoothly. From advertising, to décor, to coming up with prizes, to helping people check in at the event, there is so much you can get involved with while still being able to play on a team! Just email Panoply@mtsinaishul.com to get involved.

You mentioned trivia… I don’t know any random facts and I’m not that great with puzzles. Will I still have fun?

• At MSJC we have some of the most talented and experienced volunteers who help put together a new, interactive, state-of-the-art trivia experience each year. Trivia rounds consist of multi-media presentations, “physical” tasks, and paper & pen tests. These can range anywhere from taste tests, to “guess that tune,” to yes, random trivia questions. No matter what think you know, or think you don’t know, there is something for everyone. If you’re here to have fun, you will! If you’re here to win, good luck!

That was a lot of information and I’m kind of confused and I have about a million questions!

• No worries! We’re here to help. Just email Panoply@mtsinaishul.com and we’ll do our best to answer any quandaries, queries, and questions you might have!
