Jim Dailakis's Comedian Bio
|
| Bio | I’m a Greek/Australian actor/writer/comedian/voiceover artist. I’ve been touring the USA as well as Canada, Cayman Islands, Australia and the UK. On stage, I talk about relationships, being an Aussie in America and mimic movie stars as well as contort my face to look like them too. Sometimes, I can look exactly like Whoopi Goldberg. I wonder if my fellow patriots who had a show called Puppetry of the Penis on Broadway are able to do this with their genitalia. Imagine putting that on your resume -- "able to manipulate testes to bear an uncanny resemblance to Cher." I’ve written several screenplays where I will play the lead (but go see them anyway). We’re working on getting a marketable female lead. Does anybody have Chalize Theron’s number handy? (We did hang out for a while but I had to break it off because there are only so many "Hey Jim, pull my finger sweetie" routines I can endure regardless of how pretty she is.) Geoff Burton is an outstanding director and DP. He’s worked with Nicole Kidman and directed Russell Crowe. He’ll direct ALL MY FRIENDS ARE GETTING MARRIED.
I’ve just been hired to write the screenplay adaptation for "Set ’Em Up, Joe" for one of Frank Sinatra’s closest inner circle friends.
