Kevin Miller is an Austin improviser and instructor at the Merlin Works Institute for Improvisation. He started improv on October 24, 2001, the morning after seeing his friend Andy Crouch's graduation show at the Hideout Theatre. His first instructor was Shana Merlin. Kevin graduated from Level 3 at the Hideout on March 26, 2002 and became a member of We Could be Heroes.
The Bear Joke
In September 2011, Kevin went on a solo backpacking trip to Montana. In the weeks and months preceding the trip, Chuy Zarate—an avowed indoorsman—expressed his confidence that Kevin would be eaten by a bear while hiking through the wilderness. Upon Kevin's return, Chuy adopted the theory that Kevin had been eaten by a bear, and was now actually a bear wearing Kevin Miller's skin as camouflage. The joke became strangely persistent, even among AIC members who had no idea as to its origin.
