Summary

Jewtopia tells the story of two 30 year old single men, Chris O'Connell and Adam Lipschitz. Chris, a gentile, wants to marry a Jewish girl so he'll never have to make another decision. Adam Lipschitz, a Jew, wants to marry a Jewish girl to please his family, but can't get a date to save his life. After meeting at a Jewish singles mixer, Adam and Chris form a secret pact. Chris promises that he will help Adam find the Jewish girl of his dreams and show him "Jewtopia", but only if Adam will help Chris shed his gentile-ness and bring him undercover into the Jewish world. Stereotypes collide, cultures clash and chaos ensues!

"UNSTOPPABLE! Fogel and Wolfson have created one of the biggest theatrical hits! – The New York Times

 "Hilarious! Raucous! Merciless! ...Bryan Fogel and Sam Wolfson know their territory well and assault it with unflagging comic energy! Enlisting Andy Fickman as director ensures an equal-opportunity satire...when Jewtopia hits its mark, which is frequently, it's outrageously funny!"" - Los Angeles Times

"Entertaining!...Wild!...Raucous!...Wolfson and Fogel fill the stage with overwhelming energy...they come across as natural clowns, alternately vulnerable, charming and animated. Certain to hit home with all observers, whatever their religion!" - Variety"

After a quarter century of Neil Simon and his imitators, the playwrights redeem the formula with edge! Displaying a commercial sensibility that is almost obscene, they combine the swaggering generation y, nailing two demographics at once! The result is irresistible The young authors play the parts with sassy abandon! The script throws every ingredient on hand into the comedic chicken soup!" - Time Out New York"

Crazy! Hilarious! A laugh riot! Fogel and Wolfson bring an easy charm to their roles! A fresh take on an old theme, played for a new generation. We predict that Jewtopia will fun forever." - The Journal News

"Raucous! Madcap! True to life! Fogel and Wolfson deserves to take center stage! As co-writers and co-stars, Fogel and Wolfson are very comfortable with the material and playing off each other!" - Variety Gotham

"Such a premise!...This show has edgy, late night attitude. Jewtopia is a show that appeals to all ages - what's not to like?" - New York Newsday

"A Definite Don't Miss! Outrageous! A plethora of belly laughs served up by Bryan Fogel and Sam Wolfson, two bright, talented young men who have a definite future ahead of them writing comedy! Sometimes into each life an unexpected ray of sunshine falls!" - Beverly Hills Courier

"Hilarious! Absolutely priceless! Bryan Fogel and Sam Wolfson are intelligent, clever and attractive and posses a palpable collaborative chemisty.. Fogel displays a steady Kevin Spacey-type intensity, and Wolfson provides a more frenetic energy resembling Ben Stiller. When they score, they score big!" - The Jewish Week New York
