Dave Lawson Biography – Dave Lawson Wiki
Dave Lawson is an Australian comedian, actor, writer, TV, and radio personality. He performs regularly on the stand-up comedy circuit, and at one time participated in a talk-back radio segment on the commercial radio station Nova 100. He is known for being cast in Bruce (2016), Peter Rabbit (2018), and INXS: Never Tear Us Apart (2014).
He is best recognized for his role as the host of the Nickelodeon Australia shows Saturday Nick Television, Sarvo, Nick Takes Over Your School, and Camp Orange. He also co-hosted with fellow Sarvo host James Kerley and Sophie Monk for the 2006 Nickelodeon Australian Kids’ Choice Awards. On February 16, 2007, he announced his intention to leave Nickelodeon Australia, although several remarks by Kerley hinted that Lawson might return at a later stage.
He later went back to television work in April 2008, co-hosting The Dave & Kerley Show with James Kerley on Channel V at 10 am on Sunday mornings. He was also presenting and participated in the Ten Network’s Guerrilla Gardeners, in which, because of his experience, he was hired primarily “to spin lines to the councils [attempting to stop the show] when they turned up”.
He also featured in the Toyota Memorable Moments series of television commercials, depicting great moments in the history of Australian rules football with fellow comedian Stephen Curry. Curry plays the straight man, while an over-enthusiastic Lawson annoys, and is more often hurt by, the players as they recreate the scenes. Lawson also appeared in the music videos for Alex Lloyd’s Green, Duncan James’s Speed of Life, and Gerling’s Dust Me Selecta.
Lawson has been awarded the coveted Comedy Custodians Award for Best New Talent for his comedy show entitled “Life as Henry Lawson’s Grandson and other funny things about me”. He was cast in the 2013 ABC comedy series It’s a Date, along with Poh Ling Yeow, and in the 2014 ABC comedy Utopia. He also performed in the band Born Backwards. He finished his secondary school studies at Haileybury College.
