Born in Toronto in 1969, Matt Gordon has been performing in one capacity or another since the early 1980's. After triumphantly winnning first prize in his grade 8 speech contest, Matt realized he had something more than just mere speaking talent. Studying Theatre at Guelph University, it was there that Matt discovered his love for film acting, earning himself lead roles in a number of student short-films. Moving back to Toronto, Matt found a new passion with something he realized he did naturally well, "clowning". Originally working with John Turner of 'Mump & Smoot', he formed his own squad 'Humane Restraints' which enjoyed a great deal of success and acclaim. With numerous theatre and tv commercial credits to his name Matt's early work in Toronto was eclipsed when he received the NOW Magazine award for "Toronto's Most Likeable Bartender" while working at College St's notorious Midtown Bar.
