'Ross Leslie, though, is one of those rule-proving exceptions. A bossman who can do the do. His comedy is biographical and original, unpredictable and vividly fresh' (EdinburghLaughterBulletin.substack.com, 2024).

My great grandfather was a world-famous Jewish comedian in the early 20th century. He was known to the public as 'Our Hebrew Friend' and performed at the Royal Variety Show and on the BBC. A century later, here I am in the same job, asking the same questions. What does it mean to be a comedian, to be Jewish, and to be both at the same time? A show about legacy, identity and finding your place in the world. 'Cheekily transgressive... he's an accomplished comic' (Chortle, 2024).

David Rose: Our Hebrew Friend

Struan quit in late 2019, pretty fortunate as a few months later no one else could perform. In 2020 Struan was married right before the pandemic struck with his corgi as ringbearer. The next five years out were an absolute rollercoaster he's excited to tell. Don't miss out! You never know where Struan will go next, he doesn't either. 'Will have you cackling' ****½ (Advertiser, Adelaide). 'A highly candid comedic voice' **** (VoiceMag.uk). 'What Fringe is all about' **** (PerthHappenings.com.au).
