CIF 2016 The Journey with Jay Sukow
Come along on The Journey! Leave your ego at the door and try a form that is focused solely on supporting each other. You remain on stage during the entire piece -- a giant game of follow the follower where no one is leading. Organic transformations, seamless transitions, patterns and callbacks. The ultimate in reacting moment to moment. Its like a drug trip without the drugs. This will help you become a more agile improvisor. Its hard to explain what it is. You just have to enjoy where it goes.


Jay Sukow has been performing with and without a script for over 20 years. He has trained with, among others, Stephen Colbert, Steve Carell, David Razowsky, Keith Johnstone, Del Close and Mick Napier.

He is the founder of Today Improv, where he teaches improv to actors, business, and everybody else. He is currently on faculty at M.i.s Westside Comedy Theater as well as the director of iO Wests sketch team Millard Fillmore. Before moving to LA, Jay was a faculty member of The Second City, where he also performed regularly as part of their faculty jam Those Who Cant. and a faculty member iO Chicago, where he was also head of its artistic committee and coached groups. Jay has taught and performed at festivals throughout the world, including the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Club Med and
the Del Close Marathon.

Jay has performed throughout the world, toured with Mission IMPROVable, performed on several house ensembles at iO Chicago, and was also an ensemble member of ComedySportz Chicago and its touring company. He has been a guest performer with Boom Chicago, The Second City, The Second City ETC, The Second City Northwest, Messing with a Friend, and many more. He has been on several podcasts includingImprov Nerd with Jimmy Carrane ADD Comedy with Dave Razowsky and was featured on the improv documentary Whether the Weather.

Jay currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife, two kids and dog. He will gladly talk endlessly about how much better the world would be if everyone took just one improv class.
