The Jewish Community Center of Houston presents Circumcise Me. Premiering in Houston! The Off-Broadway Show Circumcise Me Starring Yisrael Campbell (pictured, phto by Carol Rosegg). Sunday, April 10 at 2:00 PM.

Yisrael Campbell makes his Houston debut in his one-man show Circumcise Me. A comedy on the cutting edge, it’s a spiritual journey stretching across four decades, two continents, and three circumcisions. Circumcise Me is a rare collection 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 funny. The Jewish part came later.

What the critics are saying:
“PLENTY OF LAUGHS. Mr. Campbell’s genial and polished recounting is a tale well told” - NY Times

“Yisrael Campbell is the funniest Roman Catholic Orthodox Jewish Comedian in the world. Hurry and see him before he becomes a Buddhist!” - Stephen Colbert, Comedy Central

“…an EXTRAORDINARY spiritual, creative and occasionally absurd journey…”
- Jerusalem Post

“The show is full of tiny, brilliant bits of observational humor, making it as enjoyable as a good stand-up comedy routine.” - Washington Square News
