Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe 07/06/2020
Shtisel is refreshingly nonjudgmental, and that may be its best quality. Rather than emphasizing the otherness of the Haredi people we meet, the show brings out their humanness, sometimes with comic touches. Go to Full Review Jeffrey Fleishman Los Angeles Times 04/29/2019
The power of "Shtisel" is in demystifying religious orthodoxy as we follow the lives of Shulem Shtisel (Doval'e Glickman), a bearded, pious yeshiva teacher, and his artistic, disappointing and unwed son, Akiva. Go to Full Review Rachel Cooke New Statesman 02/05/2019
It's really great: charming, funny, sad and brilliantly acted. But it's also unusual and fascinating. Go to Full Review Alejo Flah Letras Libres 09/28/2021
Shtisel is probably Singer's best adaptation to date, without being an adaptation of any particular work of his. Go to Full Review Diane Pershing Malibu Times 04/19/2019
The writing, the acting, the dilemma facing all the characters are so familiar and real as to transcend cultural or religious barriers. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
