ABOUT JAMES

James Hancox is an actor, improviser, theatre-maker and MC whose work blends theatre and comedy and has toured arts festivals around the world.

He began his career as part of improv music act Abandoman - most notably performing at the London Apollo, on ‘8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown’ and as the support act for Ed Sheeran’s tour.

He then went on to create six critically-acclaimed solo shows and toured them around the UK and Australia - combining physical theatre, clown, improvisation and his own original music. He has been described as a ‘master of physical theatre’ (Fringefeed) with ‘a lightning quick wit’ (Gutter Culture).

Since relocating to Perth in 2019, James is a regular improviser with Cluedunnit Murder Mysteries at His Majesty’s Theatre, has had roles in A Midsummer Nights Dream (Actors Workshop) and We Will Rock You (Platinum Entertainment), and most recently founded Tiny Shed Theatre Company: making bold, imaginative theatre for young people and touring it around schools and festivals.

Alongside his creative work, James has run theatre workshops for over two decades: beginning as a college lecturer in the UK, then moving into primary education, then secondary, before offering independent sessions to a wide range of students, artists and institutions. He has worked with WAAPA, Perth Youth Theatre and the Australian Institute of Theatresports and many schools in WA.
