"Instantly likeable… flashes of genius" – TICKETMASTER
"Offbeat ideas, strong imagery and dry observational asides, he finds laughs in unusual places. A promising voice" – Steve Bennett CHORTLE
"A keen comic mind." – Bruce Dessau LONDON EVENING STANDARD
Hot off winning the Midland New Act of the Year in 2014 and 2015, Josh Pugh rapidly shot to the upper echelons of UK stand-up, winning English Comedian of the Year 2016, only two years after playing his first gig. He also won the Funhouse Gong Show as well as the Best New Act prizes at both the 2015 Birmingham and Nottingham Comedy Festivals.
Josh’s clever, original, and (most importantly) very funny writing and performing continues to bring in plaudits, from Chortle to the Londonist to the London Evening Standard. Catch him before he’s huge.
