Does the leader of your Seder read out loud the whole Haggadah or do you go around and have each person read a portion?

oopps I accidently voted fo the head reading it out loud. But I like it better when everyone reads a piece. It keep everyone awake and together and interested in the seder. It also works well iuf you have non-frum people at your seder.

Well, my father has a special tune that we use for the hagada, so it would be singing before men. Otherwise, no halachic problem that I know of.

In my family - meaning my father's family, my father lead the seder and asked people to read certain parts. Sometimes it was english and sometimes hebrew. You are supposed to understand what you read and you have an obligation to tell the story of exodus. That would mean non-hebrew speaking people SHOULD read it in english.

My father also gave explanations and commentary that made it a lot more interesting for those not religious at the table.
