Museum of Jewish Heritage Features CIRCUMCISE ME, 12/8
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.
