Tim Minchin is an internationally-acclaimed comedian, musician, actor and writer. Darkside won him the Perrier Award for Best Newcomer in 2005, and since, audiences have been bowled over by his combination of technical brilliance and trenchant wit.
Sell-out and critically acclaimed shows, such as Ready for This? And in 2010 his biggest tour to date (with a 55-piece orchestra). Tim also wrote the music and lyrics to Matilda the Musical (2011), which won seven Olivier Awards including Best Musical as well as multiple Tony awards and a Grammy nomination. Tim also worked on the musical adaptation of Groundhog Day which after its success and acclaimed limited run at The Old Vic in London moved to the August Wilson Theatre on Broadway in the Spring of 2017.
In 2019 Tim also toured his latest show BACK to a sold out audience in both Australia and the UK. Tim’s latest work ‘Upright’ which he wrote the story for, the music and lyrics and stars in is currently being shown on Sky Atlantic in the UK and then on Fox in Australia.
In 2020 Tim released his debut studio album 'Apart Together' to huge critical acclaim, charting at number 3 in the ARIA Charts. To celebrate the release of his album, Tim streamed for 48 hours only, a concert recorded in Sydney , where he played through the album and talked about the songs. The intimate gig was downloaded and watched by thousands all over the world.
Tim finished 2020 by winning 2 x AACTA awards : 'Best Comedy Series' for 'Upright' and 'Best Comedy Performer' for his role as Lucky in 'Upright'.
Tim has published two books: the graphic novel, Storm, and the illustrated childrens’ book, When I Grow Up. He is a member of the Order of Australia, a philanthropist and a mediocre juggler.

Lifefulness: Live Life Fully with Tim Minchin
Today we are interviewing Tim Minchin - comedian, musician, actor, songwriter and multi-talented genius. He’s played sold out comedy shows at the Sydney Opera House, his songs have gone mega-viral a bunch of times, he wrote the every award-winning musical Mathilda and we feel he should leave some of the success for everyone else.
Alongside this he’s been a proud skeptic, atheist and humanist who, through his art and public comment, engages deeply with why we are here, and how we should live.
