BIOGRAPHY
Jim Tavare's deadpan style has won over audiences throughout Europe, Australia and the USA - where he came fourth in a coast to coast TV contest for The Last Comic Standing.
Joined onstage by Bassie (a double bass), Jim's one-liners and visual gags are most reminiscent of Tommy Cooper. He is also a champion of the much neglected and much misunderstood school recorder, revealing the versatility of the 'objet d'art' in his one-man jazz quartet.
Jim starred in ITV's Sketch Show, had his own show Jim Tavare Pictures Presents and appeared as the proprietor of the Leaky Cauldron in Harry Potter: The Prisoner of Azkaban. His wonderfully distinctive humour has also landed him appearances on three Royal Variety Performances.
Known to be Prince Charles' favourite comedian, Jim has entertained the family on many occasions. The most nerve-racking was a party at Highgrove to celebrate the 60th birthday of the King of Greece. Among the audience were HM The Queen and no less than thirteen crowned heads of Europe.
