Strap yourself in. Josh Glanc is back and funnier than ever! The FRINGE WORLD Festival favourite has brought along an ensemble of his most chaotic characters, eccentric music numbers, and belly laugh-inducing stand-up to have you clutching your sides and leaving the show winded, confused, but ecstatic.
Josh Glanc: Collections 2024 is a must-see if you’re after an hour of crazy, out-of-the-box comedy. The hour-long show is a mix of old and new content, making it a perfect catch-up session for anyone new to the Glanc-appreciation club.
As someone who has previously attended Glanc’s shows, I had an inkling of the chaos that was about to ensue. My date, on the other hand, was less prepared. After being pulled out of his seat one minute into the show to help announce the man himself, my date's palpable fear had the crowd in stitches. If you’re feeling bold, I highly recommend sitting in the front row for your chance to join in on the mayhem.
Glanc’s crowd work is unparalleled and promises that no two shows will be the same. Despite a few hiccups where he needed to jump out of character, he kept the crowd entertained and built a lovely camaraderie. It’s the mark of a true professional that, against all odds, he was able to pull through and put on what I think is one of his best shows to date.
At no point did I know which way his skits were headed, which is the mastery behind the mess. This is one fantastic mind you do not want to have a quick peep into.
Josh Glanc: Collections 2024 is the perfect entree before a four-course FRINGE WORLD Festival feast. So lay out your napkins, pick up your fork, and dig into this masterpiece.
