Josh Howie

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.  Josh integrated these stories into his hugely successful debut solo Fringe stand up show, entitled Chosen which played to sell out audiences and received rave reviews at the 2008 Edinburgh Festival followed by a sell out run at the Soho Theatre.

Already a familiar face on the comedy circuit, Josh performs regularly in London at clubs such as Up The Creek, Banana Cabaret, Comedy Store, 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.

Josh has also been filmed for the Paramount Comedy shows World Stands Up and Comedy Blue and can currently be seen as the presenter of Movie Geek, the Sky Movies show that offers all the latest news in the world of cinema.  Often praised for his writing talent, Josh is a regular contributor to The Guardian and is a columnist for Sky Movies Magazine.

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.
