“PLENTY OF LAUGHS. Mr. Campbell’s genial and polished recounting is a tale well told.”
-New York Times

“MAZEL TOV! Pitch-perfect blend of genuine sentiment and hilarious one-liners. DEEPLY MOVING.”
-New York Post

“LENNY BRUCE never had sex with an Orthodox Jew, but if he had he would have produced Yisrael Campbell.”
-The Guardian

“…a blessing both to the Jewish people and to humanity.”
-BBC News

“LEMME GIVE YOU A TIP—this show definitely makes the cut!!!”
-Judy Gold, Emmy Award Winning Comedian

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.
