The Comedy Conservatory at La Nuit Theater will be holding auditions for internships and scholarships to their 5-level long form improv training center.
The classes are taught by Yvonne Landry and Nick Lopez. Yvonne has 17 years of professional comedy experience including teaching at Second City in Chicago. Her background includes a BFA in Performing Arts from Columbia College in Chicago, and she is also a graduate of the Annoyance Theater and Improv Olympic (Chicago). Her acting experience is also extensive - she most recently appeared in The Reaping and Deja Vu and plays a supporting role in the Justin Timberlake film The Open Road.
Nick Lopez trained at Improv Olympic (Chicago) and completed the training courses at La Nuit in 2004. Nick compliments his experience with extra discipline in physical, movement-based improvisation and acting techniques as well as a BFA from Loyola New Orleans. He has acted in cutting-edge plays all over the country, including Off-Broadway, Philadelphia and Aspen. Nick most recently appeared in FOX’s Prison Break, The Way of War with Cuba Gooding Jr. and Robosapien. Yvonne and Nick have taught unique improv and character workshops to rave reviews in New Orleans, Los Angeles, Houston and Chicago.
There are 5 levels to the program; each is 2 hours per week for eight weeks. In the classes you will learn the fundamentals of improv, both long and short form, stage presence, onstage movement techniques, and a quick tongue to match your ever growing quick wit. We do not teach people how to be funny; we teach people how to maximize their natural humor, intelligence, and charisma through improvisation.
Only a handful of internships and scholarships are available so you must book your audition slot now!
