My Superpower: I love the craft of writing and performing. I am really good at pinpointing the stumbling blocks and impediments to getting a performance to the next level. I help performers fine tune their writing and find different possibilities of nuance for each bit and finally, how to hone those bits so they work every time.
I know that performing consistently can be challenging. I’ve known some people dip their toes in, but never really commit to comedy. Others may have fits and starts, but then take a long break and feel too rusty to get back in. No matter your circumstance, I am here to help. I can also coach those who are just starting out and are not even sure how to put together a set.
I will support you with figuring out structure, timing and rhythm with feedback that will be constructive and well worth your while. I bring 20+ years of experience performing in clubs, Las Vegas casinos, private functions, festivals, cruiseships and theatres. I’ve done the dusty, 60’s decor, awkward function rooms way out in the boondocks. I’ve done barrooms with far too much neon that smell like beer and sadness (with only 3 people actually listening). I’ve done a lot of New York rooms of various stature i.e. bars, comedy clubs FAMOUS clubs like the Friar's and Dangerfields ! and huge function halls. I’ve also done gorgeous three-tiered grand theatres to 1,000 people. The theatre shows are especially gratifying.
I’ve seen it all. As a result, I can offer insight into how to approach your set no matter where you are at in your journey.
