Jim Tavare Biography

Stand-up comedian and Harry Potter actor, Jim Tavare is instantly recognisable from the BAFTA winning The Sketch Show on ITV1.

His original deadpan delivery and perfectly crafted routines have also made him an internationally renowned act. From entertaining troops in the Falkland Islands, to the rare accolade of performing at three Royal Variety Performances and a private show at Highgrove, Jim's off-the-wall comedy has been equally well received in the USA.

In 2008 Jim reached the finale of hit US talent show Last Comic Standing (NBC) and embarked on a 63 date tour of the United States with the other finalists. Jim was also the winner of International Star Search in 1992 and went on to appear in Caroline's Comedy Hour and the sitcom Wings.

Jim has performed live at Evening at the Improv in Los Angeles, Showtime Montreal Gala, the Montreal Just for Laughs and Aspen International Comedy Festivals. Jim has written and performed his own series Jim Tavaré Pictures Presents… (BBC Two) and The Golden Rose of Montreaux nominated The Jim Tavaré Show (Five).
