Recent Provincetown summers have featured Jackson at The Provincetown Theatre, The Post Office Cabaret, and Tin Pan Alley. His cabaret work has made a home at popular New York venues Joe’s Pub, DROM, Duane Park, 54 Below, and The Green Room 42. He is also co-host of the Broadway-themed podcast 5 Questions with James and JAM with dear friend, TONY nominee, John-Andrew Morrison.

A native of Boston, and graduate of Westfield State University, James’ cabaret work, both solo and as part of The Black-Ups (with co-creators LaDonna Burns and Elliot Roth), has been seen across the country at The American Repertory Theatre’s Club Oberon in Cambridge, Los Angeles’ Lyric Theatre, The Provincetown Theatre, The Post Office Cabaret and Tin Pan Alley.
