Dave Levinsohn
Gauteng
Dave Levinsohn’s comedy style has been described as ‘off the wall’ and off the cuff. Having started as the host at the Coffee Lounge Comedy club in ‘97, he has become one of South Africa’s most bankable comedy acts.
The ex-Art Director made a wise move; graphic design’s loss is comedy’s gain. He loves making people laugh.
He has performed at the Vodacom International Comedy Festival, the Cape Town International and the Smirnoff Comedy Festival and is one of the first SA stand ups to be invited to perform at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2012 with Loyiso Gola.
He has graced the small screen in many commercials, some of which have gone on to win awards and have become viral successes. He co-presented the first series of SABC 3’s ‘Going Nowhere Slowly’ and was a head writer on MNet’s Late Night With Trevor Noah (2010).
