James Acaster
A whimsical master, James has received acclaim from around the world, including a record breaking 5 consecutive nominations for Best Comedy Show at the 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 & 2016 Edinburgh Fringe Festivals. In 2017 he toured the country with a staggering three-show trilogy, performing Recognise, Represent and Reset consecutively over three nights in each venue. These three shows and Recap form his Netflix four part series, Repertoire. It was the first of its kind, a stand up mini series with an overarching narrative, and James is the first UK comic to shoot more than one Netflix Original special.
In 2019 James completed a mammoth long tour of his hugely successful show Cold Lasagne Hate Myself 1999 around the UK, Australia and America, the show was nominated for a critics choice award after its release in 2022 and is now available to watch on his website. James is currently touring his new show Hecklers Welcome internationally.
As well as a celebrated stand up, James is a Sunday Times best selling author, with three publications; Classic Scrapes, Perfect Sound Whatever and his most recent book, James Acaster’s Guide to Quitting Social Media. James also has three hit podcasts: Off Menu which he hosts with Ed Gamble, Perfect Sounds and his latest release; Springleaf which he wrote and stars in.
This year James joins the Ghostbusters cast in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire.
