Elke Reid

Hello, I'm Elke (L-key) and I love improv! I'm an experienced improviser and character actress from NYC with training from the renowned Upright Citizens Brigade (UCB) and the People's Improv Theater (PIT). I have performed and taught at festivals around the world. I'm registered with the New York State Education Department to teach Drama/Improv and I'm dedicated to helping others discover their own love for the art form.

Improv should be fun, fearless, and full of surprises. I teach and perform improv with a love for bold choices, honest reactions, and playful exploration. My workshops invite performers to move, listen deeply, and trust what’s already working - while laughing a lot along the way. Whether the focus is physical storytelling, character work, or ensemble connection, each session is designed to help improvisers grow while having a great time.
