A rising star out of Brisbane, Peter James is quickly making a name for himself on the Australian comedy circuit. He has performed multiple sell-out shows to audiences across the sunshine state, as well as at the Adelaide Fringe, Perth Fringeworld, Brisbane Comedy and Melbourne International Comedy Festivals, where he garnered four and five-star reviews. Peter is also one half of the late-night, cult-comedy sensation ‘Shad and Pete Save the World!’, which routinely features some of the biggest names in Australian comedy as special guests. He has toured regional Australia as part of the ‘Sydney Comedy Festival Showcase Tour’, and is the founder and organiser of Cairns’ premier comedy venue, Laughing Heart Comedy. Peter also regularly performs at some of Australia’s most prestigious comedy venues, such as the Sydney Comedy Store, Perth Comedy Lounge and Basement Comedy Club in Melbourne, and has most recently featured on a 56 show tour around the UK in support of Georgie Carroll for her 2025 ‘Infectious’ tour. 2023 ADELAIDE FRINGE WEEKLY AWARD WINNER FOR ‘BEST COMEDY’ TOUR SUPPORT: Doug Stanhope, Josh Wolf (USA), Jazz Emu (UK), Steve Hoftstetter (USA), Georgie Carroll (UK) & ISMO (FIN) "Articulate, intelligent and very, very, very funny." ★★★★★ GLAM ADELAIDE "Wise far beyond his years, deftly mixing eloquent delivery and musical prowess with a hilariously crude sense of humour." ★★★★ THE ADVERTISER "James is a skilled performer with fantastic comedic timing, and is definitely not one to be missed." ★★★★ THEATRE PEOPLE
