In August 2018, Ashley made his debut at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with a sold-out run of his show ‘Observant Jew’.
In May 2019, he began a sold-out tour of his new show ‘Prophet Sharing’ alongside Muslim comedian Imran Yusuf.

Ashley has been featured on PBS News Hour, CBS, Fox News, in the New York Times, New York Post, Financial Times, Jerusalem Post, Süddeutsche Zeitung and in Jewish newspapers all over the world.
In addition, Ashley is an award-winning comedy writer and producer for TV and radio. Whilst at the BBC, he was responsible for unleashing the comedy phenomenon ‘Little Britain’ and he has worked with a who’s who of TV comedy.
If he has any free time, then it’s spent being run ragged by his six children and two cats.
