Jason Kiger

Originally from the US and now based in Brisbane, I am an actor and singer whose international experience spans stage performance, bilingual emceeing, and voice-over work across multiple countries. Driven by a lifelong passion for dynamic storytelling and sharp comedic timing, I specialize in character roles that demand strong comedic agility and refined vocal acuity across a rich C2–C5 baritone range. My stage credits highlight this balance, moving from the buoyant physical comedy of Edna Turnblad in Hairspray (Queensland Musical Theatre) and the deadpan delivery of Vice Principal Douglas Panch in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (BLOC) to grounded roles like Daddy Warbucks in Annie and Claude in Come From Away (Savoyards). Backed by vocal training from Hope International University and Ballarat Vocal Studio, alongside unique assets like fluent Mandarin Chinese and live percussion, I bring a global perspective, quick comedic instincts, and vocal precision to every room and production I enter.
