Biography
My name is Nick Beaton and I'm from Cape Breton Island on the east coast of Canada. I moved to Toronto four years ago to enter the exciting life of comedy. My main interest when I moved here was sketch comedy, but as time went on I decided to focus on stand up.
I've been writing and performing steady for a year and a half now and have not looked back. Well once I looked back because I thought someone said my name. But they didn't. Hopefully you'll like me. If not, thats cool. Some people don't. Love Nick.
After a stellar performance at the Montreal Comedy Festival, where he placed second in the homegrown comic competition, Beaton was approached by a representative of The Gersh Agency, which represents clients in movies, sports, comedy and literature.
At the end of their meeting, Beaton signed on the dotted line for a development contract with the agency, whose roster includes the likes of Dave Chappelle and Drew Carey along with Academy Award winning actor Jamie Foxx.
Come August, Beaton, who is a native of Sydney, will find himself in Los Angeles taking meetings with representatives from Paramount and DreamWorks along with a host of casting companies and other production houses. In addition, he will also be booked to perform in a variety of comedy hot spots where he’ll showcase his talent to anyone and everyone who will listen.
