Purim Spiels Aplenty on Esther Roosevelt Island...

I will admit I have not always been a good Jew as far knowing how it all works but I always thought Purim was on one night only but this year we are celebrating the holiday over two nights on Roosevelt Island. What makes this night different from all others? Sorry wrong holiday. Updates here when I learn more about my confusion.

The RIJC as part of its celebration will be hosting Rabbi Pincus (aka Rabbi Morritt) who will be moderating the ongoing great debate which is better latkes vs. hamantashen and Chabad of Roosevelt Island will be hosting a Chinese Purim the next night.
