On Wednesday, December 8 at 7 p.m., actor and playwright Yisrael Campbell will perform his hilarious one-man show Circumcise Me, directed by Sam Gold, at the Museum of Jewish Heritage - A Living Memorial to the Holocaust. A Q&A session with Mr. Campbell will follow the performance. Lauded by The New York Times, The New Yorker, and others, Circumcise Me is the story of an Orthodox-convert who began life as Roman Catholic Christopher Campbell. His journey from misspent, alcoholic youth to his conversion to Judaism - not once but three times - is poignant, provocative, and powerfully witty.
