Ryan Belleville
Jasper on Life On A Stick

This 20-something was raised in show biz. His parents met while acting in a play and are both still working actors. As a teen, Ryan Belleville started performing improvisation at The Loose Moose Theatre Company, a famous improvisational theater where Theatresports was created. He began by taking his award-winning street-act across Canada and Australia to comedy and theater festivals.

Belleville moved to Toronto and branched out into stand-up comedy. In only a few years he has become one of the hottest stand-up comics in Canada. His stock continues to rise since he is also an accomplished actor and writer who has gained much attention in Hollywood from casting directors, studios and networks alike. He recently shot a movie-of-the-week in New Orleans called "Stuck in the Suburbs" for the Disney Channel.

Belleville has earned a Canadian Comedy Award and The Phil Hartman Award for outstanding young comics in Canada, and was nominated for the Tim Sims Encouragement Fund Award in 2001, a prestigious award for outstanding emerging comedic talent in Toronto. Belleville has also had his own episode of "Comedy NOW!" on CTV/The Comedy Network, making him the youngest comic in Canada to tape one.

Belleville appeared in the pilot of "What the Canuck?," an improvisational TV show, and has been a series regular in the groundbreaking CBC sitcom, "The Sean Cullen Show." He was a hit at 2002's Chicago Comedy Festival and at Just for Laughs 2003 in the New Faces of Comedy. In 2003 Belleville also shot a lead role in MuchMusic's feature "Going The Distance" and made appearances on CBS' "The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn" and Toronto 1's "The Toronto Show."
