Shaun Majumder

Shaun Majumder had blossomed into one of Canada’s award-winning comedians in just a few short years. As a former cast member on This Hour Has 22 Minutes, Majumder provided viewers with a volatile mix of parody, sketch comedy, and scathing editorial commentary. Equally at home on stage, as he is in front of the camera, Majumder’s incessant wit never ceases to entertain.

Shaun Majumder’s material is slice-of-life. He refers to everything from his family to holidays or goes completely alternative with the free-form association. His greatest weapon so far is his physical work. He has an outstanding range and is adroit at creating intriguing characters and playing them off each other.

Shaun Majumder takes his time on stage and doesn’t rush his punch lines. He allows the audience to follow his lead. A former member of the famous sketch comedy group The Bob Room, his clever and unique style of comedy earned him Gemini nominations for The Comedy Network special On the Edge With Shaun Majumder, as well as the Halifax Comedy Festival. Other television appearances include The Late Late Show With Craig Kilborn and Comedy Central’s Premium Blend. In 2002, he received the Canadian Comedy Award for Pretty Funny Stand Up.

Shaun Majumder is proud and honoured to have joined the prestigious list of comedians who have performed at the renowned Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal, Canada.
