Although Jason, Nicholas and Donovan are young in the game, they have become a force within the comedy industry, which has made GOLIATH AND GOLIATH the most recognisable and respected comedic brand in the country.
Their mission has always been to be a brand that is recognised for putting comedy first, providing opportunities for new and experienced comedians and to develop and educate audiences by consistently providing world class stage productions. This ethical and humble approach stands them in good stead with a national fan base and an award-winning business.
Jason, Nicholas and Donovan Goliath’s true strength lie within their collective; three successful comedians with a national fan base who have an unconditional love and respect for their industry and a strong business acumen. All elements for an epic tour and the ideal partner of Sun International on this initiative.
Eric Jansen was elected as the opening act at all The Goliath Comedy Road Trip shows. Jansen is a vibrant, young man who lives for comedy. He can very well be labelled as Reiger Park’s (and possibly Boksburg’s) poster boy for comedy, since he is the most interesting-looking comedian from his side of the world.
