Joshy in Paris
Camp cabaret meets stand up: Joshy in Paris shares the tale of life lived as a gay Australian trying to make it as a creative superstar in the p**s-ridden streets of Paris.
A delicious blend of stand up, dance, theatre and clowny burlesque to bring you the most energetic and ridiculous night of comedy your two little human eyes have ever seen.
After a debut at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2025 and many performances in comedy venues around Europe, Joshy in Paris 2.0 is glitzier, grungier and gayer than ever, ready for a 2026 Australian tour starting with FRINGE WORLD.
Join Joshy as he braves a slew of ridiculous scenarios. Will he triumph over Paris, or will France smoke this f*g just like every other?
