Laura Grey, Teacher
Laura Grey recently relocated to New York from Chicago where she wrote and performed two original revues at The Second City Etc., improvised at places like iO, The Annoyance, Second City, and Comedy Sportz, and acted in a bunch of plays. She performed and co-devised the all silent revue Reverie directed by Dexter Bullard for the Montreal Just for Laughs Festival, and before that she traveled with the ferocious three-woman sketch troupe Triplette to San Francisco Sketchfest, Sketchfest NYC, and The Chicago Improv Festival.
In NY she is performing with Baby Wants Candy, the Story Pirates, Chet Watkins, and the sketch duo Klepper and Grey. [klepperandgrey.tumblr.com] Laura has a degree in drama and creative writing from Northwestern University. In her spare time she writes music with the absurd sketch/rock experiment The Laura on Laura Comeback Tour [lauraonlaura.com] and records old timey radio plays with her podcast: Horrorgasm. (Said in a robot voice) Here is her website.
