It was very inspiring. It was funny and sad at the same time just like real life. Israel Campbell is great.Written on Mar 19 2012

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.
Circumcise Me is 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.
A talk-back with Campbell follows the show.
