Midway through a global tour, the creator and star of the ground-breaking International Emmy Award®-nominated series Please Like Me (ABC2/Pivot/Hulu) and critically lauded Everybody’s Gonna Be Okay (Freeform/Hulu), Josh Thomas, is set to tour his latest stand-up show ‘Jiggle Jiggle’ in the UK. He will perform the new hit show at London’s Underbelly Boulevard from 4th – 8th November, as well as dates in Bristol, Cambridge, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Brighton, Cambridge, Sheffield, and Northampton, before he tours across Europe. Tickets are on sale now and can be found at JoshThomas.com.
Josh started doing stand-up comedy 20 years ago and quickly became a mainstay of the Australian comedy scene. His critically acclaimed TV shows Please Like Me and Everything’s Gonna Be Okay were international sensations. They dealt with lots of important *issues* but this year he just wants to be silly. He promises this new live show will be an hour of dumb, happy, in no way *important* stand-up. “This year I just want to have fun,” said Josh. “Jiggle, jiggle.”

Josh won Australia’s most prestigious comedy competition, Raw Comedy, when he was 17 years old and backed that up with his first Edinburgh Fringe Festival appearance as a finalist in So You Think You’re Funny. After several sell out tours and starring turns on TV panel shows, Josh turned his hand to writing, acting and producing and has garnered glowing reviews and a swag of awards for his television comedies Please Like Me and Everything’s Gonna Be Okay.
Please Like Me, is a world-renowned queer anthem and was inspired by Josh’s own life. Over four critically acclaimed seasons, Please Like Me was nominated for an International Emmy Award, GLAAD Media Award and GALECA Dorian Award.
