Chutzpah! is excited to present Tony Award-winner Ari’el Stachel, as he brings Vancouver audiences a deeply personal, politically urgent, and darkly funny evening of performance and conversation. This show is a tour-de-force evening of storytelling, where Ari’el draws on the themes and stories that have defined his critically acclaimed theatrical work.Through humour, vulnerability, and transformative character work, Ari’el explores Jewish identity, mental health, and belonging as an Arab-Jewish artist navigating multiple worlds. Written and performed by Stachel, the show trances his lifelong struggle with OCD, the pressure to assimilate, and his identity fracture that began after 9/11. He also reflects on the complexity of living in the post-October 7th world in a world that increasingly demands division.
The result is a deeply personal, politically urgent, and darkly funny exploration of identity, resilience, and what it means to reclaim wholeness—onstage and off.
Audiences may recognize Ari’el from The Band's Visit, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Olivia Wilde’s Don’t Worry Darling (Warner Bros.), and his widely recognized Jewish advocacy work online and beyond.
We want you to experience every moment! Please note that we cannot accommodate late arrivals once the show begins.
