Comedian, Perrier nominee, founder member of the Comedy Store Players, and creator of the world’s greatest Jewish heavy metal band Guns’n’Moses - in the 1980s and 90s Dave Cohen was Britain's Most Averagely Successful Stand-Up Comedian. Now he’s back with My Life As A Footnote, his first new one-man show in 16 years, a true and epic poem of disastrous love and lust set around the first ever WOMAD Festival of 1982.
He has written for Have I Got News For You and Not Going Out, while co-creating hit radio series 15 Minute Musical – winner of the UK Writers’ Guild Radio Comedy of the Year Award.
Since his return to the stage in 2004 he has been hailed as ‘a great comic talent’ by the Daily Mail and the Evening Standard called his songs ‘hilarious’.
