This is a funny and unusual take on Jewishness. In places it was belly laugh fun and in others it was a smile of recognition. But it is a one-man show with almost no props or scenery so, if the real price of a ticket is $99.00 it is a rip-off. At $41, with the additional $10.00 for processing (or whatever) it was we'll worth it and a delightful evening.

Description

He’s just your average Irish, Italian Catholic kid from Philly, Comic Actor, Sober Alcoholic, Recovering Drug Addict, Husband, Father, Reform, Conservative, Unorthodox, Orthodox Jew. His name is Yisrael Campbell, (the artist formerly known as Christopher), and this is his story—a spiritual journey stretching across four decades, two continents, and three circumcisions. It’s that rare collision of comedy and theater that will have women howling with laughter, men squirming in their seats, and everyone standing up to cheer. Poignant, provocative, and powerfully witty, Circumcise Me is the true—and truly unforgettable—story of a man who was born to be funny. The Jewish part came later.
