with Kristen Studard
Kristen Studard is a Chicago improviser and comedian. She spent her formative years moving from one Chicago suburb to another, with a brief stint in Tennessee. In 1999 Kristen began Bradley University where she was a founding member of the sketch and improv troupe The Roost. After graduating from Bradley in 2003 with a B. A. in Theatre Performance and Communications she moved to Scotland for a year where she made sandwiches and worked at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Kristen has been studying and performing improv in Chicago since late 2004. She is a graduate of the iO Training Center and the Second City Conservatory.
Since moving to Chicago, she has been lucky to perform in 3 sketch shows with The Geekouts, most notably in The Bestest Stuff at Chicago Sketchfest (2007).
In September of 2007 Kristen won the second season of the comedy talent competition Impress These Apes. How bout that?!
Kristen can currently be seen performing the improvised movie with Our Feature Presentation, the improvised puppet show Felt, or the improvised Harold with her team Cowboy Culture - all at the iO Theatre. Or you can catch her dancing with the Chicago Sashay Company or performing as a comedian in the crazy live game show
