Elliot Goblet

Biography

Elliot Goblet is one of Australia’s best loved and most original comedians.

He first performed in mid 1981 and in his early days he worked mainly in the comedy clubs of Melbourne & Sydney to develop a unique comedy identity. Fortunately it was just 10 months later that he was discovered by television show host Daryl Somers and started getting regular exposure on television variety shows. He went on to perform over 60 stand up comedy spots on Australian national television shows including Hey Hey It’s Saturday, Midday Show with Ray Martin and The Footy Show (NRL)

Elliot Goblet’s many other TV career highlights include lots of guest appearances on celebrity TV game shows and cameo appearances on shows like Swift And Shift, Pizza and Neighbours.

He has performed all over Australia and in 7 other countries including Canada at The Montreal Comedy Festival.

His other achievements include a best selling book Business According To Goblet, containing heavily nonsense-coated business advice; an Aria nominated Album Internally Berserk; in 2015 a collection of some of his best one liners in the Album Goblet’s greatest bits; a regular segment on current affairs TV programs, giving Elliot’s “offbeat but on target” view of the week’s news; support act for the band America during one of their tours around Australia; host of the Qantas in flight audio comedy channel World wide...and beyond; plus a cameo role in the film Fat Pizza as a pesky health inspector.

These days for Elliot Goblet (real name Jack Levi) it is mainly corporate events, and he has performed at over 1600 of these. Also he is doing an increasing number of weddings as the MC and appearances at birthday parties ranging from 21sts through to 71sts. His major strength at all of these events is his ability to include special material written for the event.

I would like to thank you for your performance as master of ceremonies at our recent luncheon. The material prepared specifically for our function and your ability to convey this to the audience in such a humorous and professional manner was exactly what we wanted for our end-of-year function. I am certain it will be talked about for quite some time. Congratulations, you are a true professional.
PriceWaterhouseCoopers

Just a few words to confirm that you did an excellent job at our Quality Planning Workshop, held at Queenscliff. At first, I was really apprehensive about using your services, because of your image portrayed on television and because of the sensitive material supplied to you to use on the workshop participants. As it turned out, I should not have had any concerns because you proved to be a true professional and everything you did came off. Your professional skills in the field are outstanding and given the opportunity we would use you again.
