About Simon King
Simon King was born in England and moved to British Columbia as a child, and his stand-up is high-energy and often improvised. He tends to work in a stream-of-consciousness mode, pulling current events, politics, religion and the oddities of human behaviour into sets with a dark, absurd streak and a good deal of observational detail.
The festival circuit has been a steady part of his career, from the HBO U.S. Comedy Arts Festival and Just For Laughs to the Seattle International Comedy Competition and the Winnipeg Comedy Festival. Canadian television gave him his longer showcases: in 2008 he had a one-hour special on Comedy Now!, broadcast on The Comedy Network and CTV, and in 2013 he taped a half-hour set for the No Kidding series on the Toronto channel IChannel.
His recorded catalogue began with the album Unfamous and continued with Furious, released as both a special and an album, the double album One For The Money/Two For The Show, and As Good As Or Better Than, which fellow comedian Rory Scovel directed. Away from stand-up he has done sketch work, voice acting and screen roles, among them Dave in the film Tooth Fairy and an appearance in The Magicians.
