Josh di Donato – A Standup Comedian’s Bio

If you enjoy dry, smart humor, you really owe it to yourself to look into this whole Josh di Donato thing. He’s a standup who tends to remind people of a young Bill Murray, with the intensity of a Kevin Spacey, and a dash of Charles Grodin, but with more hair.

In the mid-90’s to early Oughts, he appeared regularly in comedy shows at Largo and the Knitting Factory, sharing the stage with the very best of the alternative comedy scene, such as David Cross, Janeane Garofalo, Sarah Silverman, Tenacious D, Margaret Cho, Dave Chappelle, Bobcat Goldthwait, Paul F. Tompkins, Louis CK, Kid in the Hall Scott Thompson, and his friend, the late Mitch Hedberg, who brought Josh on the road with him several times as an opening act. Josh’s shows have been chosen as LA Weekly’s coveted Comedy Pick of the Week a whopping six times!

Josh has a heavy background in improvisational theater, studying with Second City founder and improv guru Del Close in college. Josh’s improvising skills definitely show up in his standup performances. His material deals with pop culture & media, language, politics, relationships and a range of other topics.

Josh has competed in both the San Francisco and Seattle Comedy Competitions, and has appeared in the Denver's Laugh Track Comedy Festival in Denver, the Iowa Comedy Fest in Des Moines and Rocky Top Comedy Contest in Knoxville, Tennessee.
