Erick Acuña
Erick has been doing improv comedy for 8 years. Since he left his beloved Peru, he's completed both WIT’s and New York UCB’s programs. He currently teaches and performs at WIT with teams The Broken Bones, Poetic Resistance, The Interview, and Bring Back the 90s. He also performs with indie teams Press Play, Couch Money, Sábado Picante, and Latinx States of America; as well as One Wet Dog at Dojo Comedy. As a coach, he wants to help you discover/expand your own individual comedic voices, be the most supportive teammates, and perform high-energy, hilarious, and cohesive shows. That's why he focuses on playing the game of scene (first fun thing), building group mind, honest listening and responding, and performance and theatricality.
