Dave Levinsohn

Dave has been doing comedy since 1997. Known as one of the Kings of Improv Comedy. He’s one of the most original acts on the circuit. A popular choice as comedian and MC at company functions, corporate days, golf days and comedy clubs based in South Africa.

He has regularly performed at the Vodacom International festival and the Smirnoff comedy festival. TV viewers are already familiar with Dave’s quirky, irrepressible humour from his Big Black Box ads. Or possibly as the zany co-presenter in the first series of the SABC 3 TV shows Going Nowhere Slowly. He also opened for Aussie comic Jimoein.

One of the best for improvised-comedy, Dave has become one of SA’s original comedy acts, honing his skills as the host at the Coffee Lounge comedy club back in ‘97. He has regularly performed at the Vodacom International festival and the Smirnoff comedy festival. Television viewers are already familiar with Dave’s quirky, irrepressible humour from his ‘Big Black Box’ ads, or possibly as the zany co-presenter in the first series of the SABC 3 TV shows ‘Going Nowhere Slowly’, as well as a character (and writer) in the latest “Tonight with Trevor Noah Show, currently being aired on Mnet.

His material darts into more lateral territory, with his “slightly-weird-guy-next-door” approach to every subject under the sun; he’s odd, without being offensive. His anarchic re-examination of everyday topics has won him fans at every appearance, as does his ability to improvise when interacting with the crowd.

His on-the-spot skills often make it look as if he’s making it up as he goes… This versatile comic offers offbeat fun for anyone in the mood for a left-field comedy experience. You will most certainly want to see Dave again.
