Todd Hart

History

Todd was born in Chicago, Illinois.

In 1986, shortly after graduating High School, I took a Denver Free University Improv class taught by Alley Theater founder Bob Wells. Coming to St. Edward's for college he tried to find others interested in improv and failed (Bow).

Sometime ~1987/88 he auditioned for Comedy Sportz at Wiley's bar. Todd was < 21. He did OK, but the person running the audition kept asking him, "You know this we'll be performing in a bar. How old are you?" And, coming from a state where he could drink at 18, and not really being a drinker, he kept saying 19. Todd did not perform at Wiley's in Comedy Sportz.

Later, Todd got a degree in Communications with minor in English Writing (and a near minor in Computer Science). And later, he got a Master's degree in Human Services - Conflict Resolution.

Twenty or so years later, Todd was waiting across the street from the Hideout and saw the words - Improv Classes. He took classes. And more classes. And did tech for many shows including Maestro, Dickens, T. Henry Baudecliffe, Séance, and Hitchcocked.

Currently expanding into the world of standup from the tutelage of Brently Helbrion who teaches an Improv to Standup class.
