As my first night club shift boss used to say “King Kong ain’t got shit on me!” Welcome to the “rocky road” of a Eastern-European youth on his way to “greatness”, silently hoping that the watery cliffs at the harbour will not be the end of the j...

David Ellis is a terrible Jew. Just the worst. He doesn’t keep kosher, He couldn’t tell you the last time he set foot inside a synagogue and he frequently forgets how to spell Chanukah.

In this 45 minute show David will take you on a journey; from bagels to the Bris, from Seinfeld to shivas, from Haroset to the house of bondage. David won’t look at any of this and instead will tell you humiliating stories, petty victories and tales of woefully tragic social ineptitude which he hopes he can somehow tie into his cu...
