Xavier Daura

Xavi Daura, born in Barcelona in 1985, is a multifaceted comedian and humorist. He works as a screenwriter, actor, director, writer, and is recognized for his work with the comedic duo Venga Monjas alongside Esteban Navarro. Their videos gained significant attention after going viral on YouTube. Daura’s career demonstrates a diverse range of creative endeavors, including participation in projects like Da Suisa, Museo Coconut, APM, and El Castillo de Takeshi. Daura's comedy style is described as "descorazonador" (heartbreaking), cynical, and excessive. His humor uniquely blends intense drama with crude comedy, often creating uncomfortable yet funny sequences. He collaborated with Carlos Vermut and Esteban Navarro on the short film 'Don Pepe Popi,' which features the group Venga Monjas. The film’s premise centers around creating a video in honor of a deceased daughter, based on a drawing and the name 'Don Pepe Popi'. This work exemplifies his ability to juxtapose emotional depth with comedic elements. Daura has gained further recognition through appearances on Comedy Central's 'Roast Battle,' where he participated in a "fratricidal" duel against Esteban Navarro, exploring twelve years of their duo’s history. The show, produced by El Terrat and arbitrated by Ignatius, featured a jury including Dani Mateo, Marta Flich, and JJ Vaquero. During the duel, Daura made a joke referencing Paul McCartney and the 'White Album'. Currently, he works as a screenwriter for the late-night show La Resistencia, and has a stand-up show called XD. He recently published his second book, 'Quemar dinero' (Burn Money), a novel critiquing capitalism and film industry eccentricities, drawing inspiration from Stanley Kubrick’s 'The Shining' and Greta Gerwig's work on the Barbie movie. ‘Quemar dinero’ incorporates elements like a dark urban legend about Marisol and features the character of Pepa Flores. Daura conducted extensive research for the novel, including speaking with psychiatrists, one of whom shared a story about a man who believed he was the president of El Corte Inglés. The book argues that marketing is often more important than the film itself, and its structure mirrors scenes from 'The Shining,' featuring a protagonist trapped in a film set hangar. Daura chose a female protagonist to avoid overusing the director character.
