Ever the salesman and propagandist, he is here to boost the sales of his new book: partly fascination with the subject, partly due to his need to explain himself but mostly he needs the money.

An interactive show, Defoe will invite his audience to paint parallels of life during the Great Plague of 1665 and the one that we can all relate to-now.

Josh has been around the fringe scene for over 12 years, sometimes as an ageless trombone wielding skeletal being, other times an Improv bouffon skewering tropes various film and TV genres.
