The Team
Meet the KTS team
David Smiedt is your MC, the host with the most. A living, breathing Jewish joke machine who delights audiences around the world with his warm inclusive, intelligent comedy. And what a mensch!
Timekeeper and referee is Geoff Sirmai (“half-watchdog, half-wit”)
And your musical improviser is Gamran Green, composer, pianist, songwriter… and molecular biologist. Of course!
Your celebrity judges are Simon Tedeschi, Australian international classical concert pianist and crossover jazz icon;
Phil Scott, writer, musician, stage and screen musical comic and star of the Wharf Revues; and
Liz Hovey, the manic medic herself… actor, director, Theatresports champion and - in her copious spare time - leading oncologist!
Your teams include all-time Kosher Theatresports champions
Shmux in Tux (Jason Elias, Andy Greenfield, Matt Foster); plus
Kosher Noshtra (Eden Glass, Willow Gelin, Jesse Barel, Tash Sloman);
Lucky They Have a Day Job (Shimon Parker, Evie Smith, Richard Wilmot, Di Gittel Kuchar);
Too Cool for Shule (Dave Bloustien, Michelle Seaton, Toffee Foltyn, Tony Sloman);
Beshert Off My Back! (Andrea Ginsberg, Simon Lenthen and Joy Roberts!)
