Performing has always been an important part of Shane’s life. It all began in amateur theatre at the age of 10 and he hasn’t stopped since. His quick wit and gift for characterisation cemented his early success, with gigs in stand-up comedy, as a TV audience ‘warm-up guy’ and as radio character ‘Sergio’ leading on to an impressive list of appearances in music videos, TV commercials and short films.

Known for his work in film, television and theatre, he's also a song and dance man, author, screen writer, creative director, producer, executive producer, motorsport enthusiast, father of four and a BIG4 ambassador. Shane is best known for his role as Kenny Smyth in the movie Kenny in 2006 that brought him wide recognition both at home and internationally. 

"There's so many reasons why this excites me. Being a parent, what I love is that there are BIG4s all over Australia in so many incredible locations." - BIG4 member Shane Jacobson
