The Birdmann unexpectedly debuted on a tour of Universal Studios, America
at the age of five and has gone on to uncover his talent in fifteen countries worldwide- wowing numerous audiences in The Tiny Top, The Famous Spiegel Tent, the international Burlesque scene and from the Melbourne Comedy Festival to the Edinburgh Fringe. The Birdmann has trained internationally and is a graduate of the one and only Rock’n’Roll Circus Training Course and holds a Bachelor of Theatre from the Queensland University of Technology.
The Birdmann has three distinct solo shows in collection and of late toured the United States of America playing the New York Clown Festival and the New York Burlesque Festival where The Birdmann was the only artist to receive a standing ovation. The Birdmann is a Vaudeville Humourist of uncommon exception guaranteed to make for a most memorable experience.
“The ideas he plays with sparkle with originality, approaching the art of comedy from the most obtuse angles… ingenious.”

About me: A man like no man with an ill-fitting suit, styling hair and fastidious humour, having toured to fifteen countries worldwide. The Vanguard of Vaudeville delivers unusual facts and unique feats through plastic bag-juggling, object balancing, knife throwing, escapology and nostril tea-drinking moments of magnificence. Though reminiscent of Houdini, Chaplin and Dada, Birdmann is incredibly original and highly humorous so for emceeing, short sharp acts or outdoor extravaganzas Birdmann is a man like no man.
