Georgia loves the kids (old and young)and loves to make people laugh!
She also likes to talk about herself in the third person!!!
Georgia is a little Aussie comedian with a huge heart, smile and an even bigger passion for all things that bring laughter and happiness in the world! She is currently the host of the kids TV show My Magical World.
She moved to the US in May 05 and loves her new home so much! But not as much as she loves her life of playing with kids, standing by herself with a mic in hand in front of hundreds of strangers and writing, writing, writing! As a stand up comedian she can be seen at the LA Improv, The Comedy Store, The Laugh Factory... and many other clubs around California. She has also appeared regularly on the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
In Australia she gained success from being a children’s entertainer both on TV and in theatres. She was Little Pet the recycling Bottle and Cloudia raindrop for kids all across Australia and toured to Asia performing numerous pantomime shows. She is also the voice of Angelina Ballerina and Jakers the Pig!
She teaches stand up comedy and acting to kids from all around America. She does private coaching and she runs kids comedy intensives regularly. She believes kids are the most natural comedians! They are so full of laughter and joy and have a lot to teach the grown ups who think they are funny!
She has extensive experience in improv and sketch work and has studied acting for many years. In Australia she ran comedy workshops for school kids that integrated environment, safety, make believe and laughter all in one. She also performed at countless festivals, events and parties entertaining the kids. She has continued this work since arriving in LA and does it purely because of her love for the kids.
Georgia’s biggest success however comes from a very different place - her award winning play readMylips.. which she produced and directed. It was critically acclaimed not only as a piece of art but for achieving its goal - stopping the silence surrounding eating disorders and Mental illness in Australia.
Georgia also writes for a number of comedy and political websites and is currently in the process of building her own production company to create amazing kid friendly shows and films.

Diet coke, Adrenalin (of the exercise variety), Billy Connely and anyone not smiling - in no particular order!
Life is short, Break the rules.

Make your own Banner Here!
-------- "Compassion is one of the most powerful and beautiful forces of human nature, but tie a smile as a wick around a glass jar of compassion, fill it with the fuel of laughter, and you have a Molotov cocktail capable of sending the blue meanies that strangle our souls racing for the exits." ---------
I love fun, laughing, living, running, smiling, hugging, kissing and STARWARS!
