Simon Taylor loves psychology. His enthusiasm for the human mind turns into a comedy show about morality, happiness, language and love in his new show, 10 Things I Know About You.
“Everyone wants to be happy. Western life is full of material things and countless opportunity, but what really makes us smile is hidden away in the back of our mind. 10 Things I Know About You reveals the simple truth about being happy in a modern world,” he says.
“People can be moral enough to empathise with a starving child on TV, all the while eating a slice of chocolate cake,” Simon says. “I entertain the hope that we are fundamentally moral as I peel back the intentions behind acts of charity”.
Simon is a Melbourne-bred stand-up comic. He graduated in psychology at The University of Melbourne and went on to become a full time entertainer. His skill as a comedian allows him to present engaging shows about better understanding people.
He was recently announced winner of the prestigious annual ‘Under Our Wing Award’, one of Australia’s top award given to emerging performers. Previous winners include Tim Minchin, Sammy J and Tom Dickins.
