He has toured extensively in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia, performing as a solo artist, with bands, and with symphony orchestras. He's released five DVDs, the most recent of which was recorded with the Heritage Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall. He is the composer and lyricist of two hit West End and Broadway musicals, Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical and Groundhog Day, both of which won the Olivier Award for Best West End New Musical and garnered nominations for Best Score and Best Musical in Broadway's Tony Awards. Minchin wrote, produced, and starred in the Sky Atlantic/Foxtel TV series, Upright, in 2019. His other screen-acting credits include Atticus Fetch in season six of Californication, a Logie Award-winning role as Smasher Sullivan in ABC's The Secret River, and Friar Tuck in the 2018 Robin Hood film. His stage highlights include Judas in the U.K./Australian arena tour of Jesus Christ Superstar in 2012, and Rosencrantz in the Sydney Theatre Company's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead the following year. He has published two books: the graphic novel, Storm, and the illustrated children’s book, When I Grow Up. He is a member of the Order of Australia, a philanthropist, and a mediocre juggler.
