“The New Orleans Comedy Arts Festival is an absolute blast! La Nuit is a really fun theater that packs their shows with tons of great acts. NOCAF is also a great oppunitunity for younger talent to get on the radar of some of the most “for real” agencies and management companies in comedy. My first appearance at the fest lead to industry meetings out in L.A.. Who knew a theater in New Orleans on a street I can’t pronounce (Freret?) could be such a pipeline to “the biz”. I can’t wait to come back, great shows in one of the greatest cities, what else could you ask for?”
“Just wanted to let you know that I booked and filmed an episode of ‘TREME’. It was great! Tim Robbins auditioned me at the callback AND he was my director. He had me do the scene different ways at the callback. Your IMPROV Classes helped me to “Wing It”! …”
“Improv classes at La Nuit are a contagiously joyful thing, and the wonderful lessons I learned there are applicable everywhere. Yvonne taught me how to find the funny on-stage and in every day life….”
” Yvonne is an excellent teacher and takes the intimidation factor out of learning improv. If you are an actor and you haven’t studied improv, you are missing the boat!!”
“Improv has made me less afraid of public humiliation! And so. . . I pretty much do whatever I want now. My experience of improv at La Nuit has been less like exercise and more like exorcism. La Nuit has allowed me to remain an artist no matter what I do in life.”
“I am so glad to be a part of this theater, you really have no idea. Everyone I have met and worked with is so supportive and with such a foundation I feel like I can grow to be become a real entertainer.”
“I just had a comedic role in my first feature ever called The Chaperone. It is WWE’s and directed by awesome Stephen Herek and it was a joy to work on. I felt confident and ready to play and say yes largely because that is how we train at La Nuit, and I like to play.”
“La Nuit has allowed me to remain an artist no matter what I do in life.”
I learned so much from Yvonne and company (and their decades of experience)
