BARGAIN

It's the final weekend of the fringe and I have two nights left of my show Our Hebrew Friend in Gluttony. In the show, I tell the story of my great grandfather, the stand-up comedian Julian Rose. Before Seinfeld, before Joan Rivers, even before the Marx Brothers, there was Julian Rose. It's a great historical story and has a powerpoint so you can drift off into a daydream if you get tired of looking at me.

The show has been well received and got a 5 star review from Stage Whispers:

This show, presented in a laconic Aussie style is engaging, relevant, non-threatening and reflective of both Australian wit, and the unique Jewish idiom… Rose deserves a good size audience to interact with who appreciate this unique, funny and timely story. The season is short, and ironically is performed in The Squeaker, a ‘pig-themed’ open air venue.

I'll be honest, sales are down from last year, which I suspect is due both to cost of living and the theme of the show. With that in mind, I'd really just like people to see the thing I've made, so if you want to come but don't want to spend the money (or are a little skeptical of seeing a Jewish themed show), please email me at david@davidrosecomedy.com with your name and the number of tickets you'd like and I'll send you some freebies for Sunday's show. You can come and have a laugh on the house.

Cheers!
David

      Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. You’re right I posted here last week, but it was just for opening night. This is for the final weekend and includes the offer of free tickets for Sunday.

    As a Muslim man I would love to attend if you come to Melbourne or the ACT.

      I’m doing a few nights of the show in Melbourne, and all the profits will be going to charity. Would love to see you there. Here’s the link: https://www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1501901

          Depending on sales, it’ll be either a few or one. Right now it’s looking like one charity. I’m thinking it’ll be between UNHCR, some environmental charities, or the fund for the Bondi victims. I’ll canvas the audience and get a sense of where they want their money to go, but ideally I’d love to donate to a few good causes.

            @sodadiver: For your own sake make sure it's a registered charity, it's easier for people to have the confidence that things are legit when it is rather than e.g. someone's fundraising page

    According to Google AI the performer is having trouble selling tickets this year, and is having to resort to giving them away. After the Adelaide Writers Week events this year that's not surprising.

    • Associatedsodadiver @ David Rose Comedy on 21/03/2026 - 16:11

      I give away tickets every year to my shows! But yes, I suspect that it’s going to be an uphill battle to sell tickets to a Jewish themed show this year.

      Personally I was unhappy with the AWW craziness and thought it was a silly decision of them to pull a writer from their lineup.

      Frustrating that I have to take it into account when my show is about a vaudeville comedian who died 90 years ago, though.

        Good luck with it mate, if I can manage to find the time I will try to come when it reaches me. Making people laugh has to be one of the most noble professions.

        It took me too long to realise but unfortunately there's a branch of people associated with Judaism that want to speak for all Jewish people and have done a pretty good job of convincing others that they do. It's tragic that that a broad and rich culture who's members over the years have contributed so much to free thinking is somehow being subverted for the purposes of colonialism, imperialism and censorship. I am sorry if that's affected you (and looking at some of the comments it appears that it may have), but if that's not you you should hold your head high and not worry about others who may falsely associate you with the aforementioned. Good on you.

    I saw David's show last year at MICF and found it quite enjoyable - so would happily recommend him.

          It wasn't all peace and love. There were some very big protest movements and strong feelings. But we worked out the issues in a way that does not seem to be happening now.

          Well, that’s what happens when you vote in morons like Rudd, Gillard, Albo, Jacinta Allen, the Greens and Teals to socially engineer your country for you. Just look at what’s currently happening in “progressive” Melbourne: shootings, stabbings, firebombing, car thefts and home invasions, teenage street gangs, kids encouraged to alter their sex, racial riots in the streets. Half the population can’t speak or won’t learn our national language. Hatred and mistrust are everywhere. Wearing weird religious headgear in the streets does not help either, as it only serves to antagonise “the other side”, revives ancient hatred and divides the community on religious lines. Welcome to Labor’s multiculturalism.

      Trust me mate.

      95% of humans just want to live life and get along. The people making the decisions to do those things on all sides are the ones that benefit/profit out of all this fighting. For ‘religion’ and ‘country’, but in reality just for money.

      Good luck to David. World needs more comedy indeed.

    I'd wish you best of luck, but if your show needs a total hiding for you to read the room, then it's on you. Everyone else can see it.

        We welcome war criminals like Herzog into Australia freely and actively commit to the ongoing genocide in Gaza. The funding fro pro Isreali lobbies for propaganda across Australia is at all time highs, it's not a stretch to ask.

          Frankly it’s a very offensive question to ask me just on the basis that I have Jewish ancestry. Would you ask a Chinese person if their show is pro or anti Uighur, or a Russian descendant if their show is anti Ukraine? You clearly have a political axe to grind and I suspect you don’t actually care what my answer is. I’m a Greens voting comedian from Melbourne. Figure it out yourself.
