Circumcise Me: the comedy of Yisrael Campbell

"Is it hot in here, or am I the only one dressed for Poland in the 17th century?" Yisrael Campbell looks more like a Hassidic rabbi than a comedian, but don't be fooled. Born Chris Campbell, the son of an ex-nun and a Catholic schoolteacher, he converted to Judaism not once, but three times - Reform, Conservative and Orthodox. After a much talked about documentary and a successful run off-Broadway, Yisrael Campbell is taking his show on the road. Circumcise Me is a hilarious, searching and moving story of one man's quest for spiritual enlightenment.
