UCB on TV: How Improv Is Changing Everything
This panel will explore the impact of improv on the current comedy landscape. Many of today's films, television shows and web series are increasingly hiring and highlighting writers and performers with improv training. The industry is tapping those who have developed skills at places like UCB Theatre and The Second City. This panel will bring together three influential creative minds, Nick Kroll (Kroll Show) Katie Dippold (The Heat), and Matt Besser (founding member of The Upright Citizens Brigade). All three have a keen eye on the improv scene and understand the power of well-trained talent.
Moderated by current UCBTNY Artistic Director Shannon O'Neill. Presented by Comedy Dynamics.
