Chris Stewart

Hi! I'm Chris and I'd be happy to be your new coach!

I play Xander in Improvised Buffy at the Kraine Theatre which is being produced by Matthew Woods. It’s been playing monthly since March 2018.

I started studying improv in 2012 at Rollins College under David Charles who is a regular player at SAK Comedy Lab in Orlando, Florida. At Rollins, I was a part of their long-form improv troupe Rollins Improv Players (RIP) where I helped lead workshops for up to 50 people in addition to a regular performance schedule. I was a captain for our short-form night and had to lead my team in regular practices of a list of about 40 different games.

After graduation, I moved to NYC and went through the improv, sketch, and character programs at UCB. I've also performed in various indie shows throughout the city.

A universal strength that has been noticed from all my teachers is my deep understanding of game. So if you are a practice group still trying to grasp concepts, or a regular performing indie team looking to fine tune on game, I can definitely help you get to that next level.

I have a theatrical background in acting, so I can also help with creating a more grounded reality and flush out unusual things even faster.

I have warm and inviting personality that creates a safe space for all performers and can help you attain group mind and that close nit ensemble. I am a coach that cares and will be more than willing to come to your shows free of charge (schedule permitting) to note you or just support.

Lets work together! We'll have loads of fun!
