Tom Fudge: Imagine standing in a room, pacing back and forth and holding forth on some subject you love to rant about. Then, imagine there's an audience of people in that room, and they're actually sitting there, listening to you talk. Wouldn't that be great? If you agree, you must think that Josh Kornbluth has the best job in the world.
Josh is a professional monologuist. He's got an interesting background, to be sure. He calls himself a "red diaper baby." His parents were Jewish communists from New York. In fact, one of his monologues is called
Red Diaper Baby.
He'll be performing that one, along with his latest show called
Citizen Josh
, this week at the
San Diego Rep's Lyceum Theater.
He joined me in studio to talk about his shows and to tell us how one gets a job as a professional monologuist.
Josh will be performing
Red Diaper Baby
Wednesday night and
Citizen Josh
on Thursday night at San Diego Rep. Showtimes are both at 7:30 p.m. and take place at the Rep's Lyceum Theater.
