Jewtopia is the offbeat, off-Broadway play that's catapulted first-time playwrights Bryan Fogel and Sam Wolfson into the limelight. The comic smash tells the story of two single friends looking for something more in a date.
Adam Lipschitz is a Jew desperate to date gentile women because they don't remind him of his mother. Chris O'Connell is a gentile man seeking "jewtopia", in the form of a Jewish girlfriend to make decisions for him.
The answer? An off-the-wall pact in which Chris agrees to find Adam a date, and Adam promises to initiate Chris into the Jewish world, undercover. As cultures clash, the play mixes self-depreciating humor with slapstick comedy. The Los Angeles Times describes Jewtopia as "a must-see… outrageously funny".
Jewtopia made its debut in West Hollywood in 2003 with 300 straight sold out performances, and has continued to receive plaudits since.
