Player Interviews

How long have you been doing improv comedy?
I have been performing improv for almost 6 years now.

What brought you to ComedySportz?
After seeing a couple shows, I was hooked on the energy and playfulness of Comedy Sportz. I then took the classes, auditioned a couple times and found my spot on a bench. What a story!

What is your favorite thing about doing shows at ComedySportz?
Something awesome happens in every show without fail. No matter how many shows I perform there, I think I will always remember at least one thing from every one of them.

Are you involved in any other shows? If so, what kind?
At Comedy Sportz, I perform in Uniformless (long form improv done by short form performers) and I coach the Rec League team Merriweather Clark. I also perform with International Stinger at the Playground Theater and I am 1/2 of the sketch group Kerpatty!

Have you done improv comedy anywhere outside of Chicago?
I did a one man show that was 1/2 scripted and 1/2 improvised at Six Flags Great America. Does that count?

What is something about you that has nothing to do with performing?
I love the Karate Kid movies, the ocean, and peanut butter.

If you had to pick someone to model yourself, who would it be?
I find a new one almost everytime I watch a show. There are so many great performers in this city it would be hard to throw a rock and not hit one that I look up to for something. Don't throw rocks at performers.
