Australia's most popular live comedian, with a gentle, relaxed and original approach to comedy.
Carl Barron is Australia’s most popular live comedian. He grew up in Longreach in Central Queensland, the son of a sheep shearer, moved to the Gold Coast where he became a roof tiler, then headed to Sydney and decided to walk on stage at the Harold Park Hotel one night - and the rest is history. His non-threatening, observational style appeals to everyone.
He has touched the hearts of thousands of people with his gentle, self-conscious, relaxed and original approach to comedy. Since winning Comic of the Year and Best Up and Coming Talent in 1993, Carl has established himself as one of the most accomplished comedy performers in Australia and around the world, treading the boards throughout New York, LA, London, South Africa, Auckland, Ireland, Singapore, Scandinavia and Edinburgh.
Carl has over 50 TV spots to his credit and five of the top ten selling DVDs ever in Australia. His first DVD release ‘Carl Barron Live’ is the country’s highest selling stand-up comedy DVD in Australian retail history. His second show ‘Whatever Comes Next’ won Best International Show at the NZ Comedy Festival before its DVD release entered the charts at number one, where it stayed for over 12 months and earned an ARIA nomination.
Having headlined at every major comedy venue and festival worldwide, Carl Barron remains one of the most sought-after comedians on the live scene - and there are very few who have received the same kudos.
