About John Kensil
Passion for Entertainment
John began his comedy career as a joke writer for radio personalities, then wrote for Jay Leno and Joan Rivers. John had been entertaining audiences with his aptly titled "John Kensil Show", a sarcastic takeoff on the old Dean Martin show, with John as hose and a cast of offbeat character comedians dropping in.
John entered the stand up comedy arena while attending Temple University
Everything John talks about in his act is based in reality. From his girlfriend running off to become a professional Stevie Nicks impersonator in a Fleetwood Mac cover band, and leaving her kids and moms ashes with him, to growing up as one of seven Irish kids in a working class Philadelphia neighborhood.
John has performed in the Boston Comedy Festival and the Las Vegas Comedy Festival. He has written for the Tonight Show, and his work has appeared in Rolling Stone magazine. John has worked at:
- New York: Carolines, Stand Up New York, Gotham, New York Comedy Club, The Comic Strip, Rascals, Stress Factory
- Los Angeles: The Comedy Store, Laugh Factory, Ice house
- Philadelphia: Comedy Cabaret, Laugh House, Comedy Works
- Colleges across the US
