Sam Simmons

Biography

TOPICS: MC, COMEDY

Sam is one of the most daring and unconventional comics in Australia, completely original and vastly absurd, he has one foot firmly planted into the soils of reality, and the other rooted deep in a determination to redefine silliness.

Sam has collected awards, glowing reviews, and played to sell out houses around the country and in 2011 and 2014 was nominated for Edinburgh’s big prize, the Fosters Comedy Award (the comedy equivalent of an Oscar). In 2012, Sam led a handpicked cast for his four part ABC sketch comedy series, Problems. In 2013, he appeared and performed stand up on the Conan O’Brien show in the USA.

Now hovering between Australia, London and Los Angeles, Sam is a true Australian original.
