Hello, I'm Matt and I've been a stand-up comedian since the tail end of 2001. It's all been going quite well.

You may have also seen me on Last Comic Standing on NBC or Paramount or some other channel in your home country. Or on the World Stands Up, which put out my half hour special. Or Ferguson or Fallon, or on E4's Rudetube. Or on a few other TV things. Or heard me on the radio. 

This August I'll be taking my fourth solo show, Wide-Eyed to the Edinburgh Fringe. You can get tickets here: http://www.underbelly.co.uk/webpages/edinburgh/edinburgh-show.php?id=61:271 and to my last two warm-up shows at the Camden Fringe here: http://www.ticketweb.co.uk/user?query=search&region=xxx&interface=tcf&search=Matt+Kirshen 

Once the Edinburgh Fringe is over, I may be gigging near you and would love you to come along. I mostly remember to put the dates up here. If I'm not gigging near you, find your nearest comedy club and ask them why not. That may work.

I have several agents for different things (there's no point contacting my UK Jazzercise agency if you want to hire me as a US astronaut) so if you want to book me for something, please email my manager matthew@levityentertainmentgroup.com and you will be redirected accordingly.

Hi, Im Pete, I started comedy at age 16 in the beautiful little town of Kelowna, British Columbia Canada. Since then I have lived in Vancouver, Los Angeles, Montreal, Toronto, North Carolina, New York, and currently 19 years later I reside in London England. I was born 10 years after my 3 brothers and sister and made the papers the very day I was born at 12 pounds. I am 6’4” of Swedish decent and have tattoos and piercing's in places you cant see;) My dad was an NHL hockey player (His name is on the Stanley Cup) and my mom a nurse. The only animal sI have had in the past 5 years is a snake and a hamster.

I have done alot of stuff in this life I never thought, or for that matter set out to do. Somehow I starred in a movie in my 20’s called Mixed Signals.(it’s someplace on Google Video, and I’m hilariously awful) I have had a number of TV development deals in Los Angeles that never panned out. I have been to Afghanistan twice! For some reason i’ve attended the Golden Globe awards. I’ve done stand up on about 20 TV shows. Some good, some bad. I have performed at the HBO Aspen Comedy Arts Festival, Just For Laughs, Boston Comedy Festival, CanWest Comedy Festival, Hubcap Comedy Festival, Copenhagen/Aarhus Festival, and the Edinburgh Comedy Festival. I married the woman of my dreams. I have had a bunch of threesomes.


There, now you know just enough to not steal my identity.


Here is a quick blurb about me, written by somebody else....


Pete arrived in the UK earlier this year where he has already become a favourite at London’s renowned Comedy Store (where he recorded his new live CD), been invited on Radio 4’s prominent Loose Ends as well as other radio and TV programs, performed alongside the likes of Stephen Merchant, Stewart Lee and Simon Amstel as part of charity Alert’s peace benefit at the Bloomsbury Theatre in London, and bagged a starring role opposite Ed Byrne is BBC4’s Sex Bombs.


In his hit solo Edinburgh show Naked Pictures of My Life, Pete illustrated the embarrassing developments of his life and how he has reached his ‘happy-apathy’ attitude towards life… This show garnered rave reviews and also bagged him a nomination for one of the most coveted awards in comedy.


Recently Pete has signed with the prestigious Collective Agency in Los Angeles after another great Just for Laughs appearance in 2010, featuring a Gala appearance hosted by Cheech and Chong. Back in Edinburgh he did another well received show called Pete’s On Earth which pushed his boundaries and nearly sold out at the Assembly rooms, garnering numerous 4 and 5 star reviews. A quick tour of South Africa, and back in time to tape BBC3’s Russell Howard’s Good News... So much good stuff on the way as well, keep checking back for updates!

Ranked amongst the top ten stand-ups in Britain by The Independent, Ian Stone is one of the most talented topical acts and comperes on the circuit. Edgy and provocative, with an easy-going manner and self-depreciating style, Ian is at great ease bantering with an audience. He's also a member of the Comedy Store's critically acclaimed 'Cutting Edge' team.
