America according to Ovadia, between glamour and melancholy.

Wearing a real comedian's tuxedo, energy and inventiveness pouring from every part of his body, skipping from gag to anecdote, to protest song and poetry and the tools of civic oratory which reveal the Jewish origin of much of the American pantheon, Moni Ovadia, exhilarating and moving showman, rolls out his richest show yet. Rich in history, in warnings, full of glamour but also of sudden moodiness, of violent melancholy. (...)

La Repubblica, Roma - Rodolfo di Giammarco - 14 November 2005



Moni the story teller narrates the American dream, with verve.

An America in balance between dream and reality is the protagonist of the composite fresco, witty and creative, devised by Moni Ovadia in Es iz Amerike!, a semi-serious scenic game which reconstructs the emigration of the Eastern Jews to the land of promise and miracles, and their gradual integration into a constantly changing society. In addition to the sociological itinerary conducted by Ovadia with his usual ability, through anecdotes and quotes from popular chronicles and Yiddish wisdom, we are offered an analysis of the influence exerted by the Jewish song on the musical tradition of America in the 20th century.
