Josh
is an ex-public schoolboy, raised as a Buddhist who then trained
as a Rabbi before being kicked off the programme for being caught
with a naked (non-Jewish) girl, so perhaps it was inevitable that
he would go on to become a stand-up comedian.
Already
a familiar face on the comedy circuit, Josh performs regularly in
London at clubs such as Up The Creek, Banana Cabaret, Comedy
Store, Comedy Café, Jongleurs, Bearcat, Red Rose and King’s
Head and around the UK for the likes of Off The Kerb, Comedy Clubs
Ltd, The Stand, Just the Tonic and the Union of Jewish
Students, proving himself to be a massive hit at comedy clubs,
universities and private functions alike.
Since
2003, Josh has been gigging all over the UK, in addition to
performing a series of gigs in Germany and Australia where he has
proved to be a massive hit. Josh has also recently been filmed for
Paramount Comedy’s ‘World Stands Up’.
The
rest of his CV reads like an accomplished media industry veteran.
Not only has Josh worked as a roving reporter for The Studio News,
as a writer/presenter on The Indie 500 (both previously on The
Studio on NTL), started his own PR firm when he was just 16,
received critical acclaim for his writing and direction of a short
film for Channel 4, he has also had a number of senior roles at a
variety of music video production companies. Most notably, at 24,
he was the youngest person ever to be appointed as Head of Video
in the London office of PARTISAN, working with the likes of Armand
Van Helden, Fatboy Slim and Placebo.
He
has, of course, now reached an age where he has realised it is
time to settle down and get a proper job: as a stand-up comedian.
