BALDWIN ALUMNI

Matt Love (2010-2012)

Matthew is a performer and writer who has been improvising since high school. Most recently, he spent two years on PIT house team the Wilhelm, who went to the Chicago Improv Festival and created a noir-themed show called In the Dark. He’s written and performed sketch with Nefarious Popes and as Gadflies with Nikhil Rao. As a journalist, he regularly contributes to the Onion AV Club and Time Out New York; he also makes Dog & Baby, a comedy zine, with friends. He is also just fine if you call him Matt and has even become kind of accustomed to hearing people say Matty these days.

Lucas Kavner (2010-2011)

Lucas Kavner originated in the wilds of Southern California before spending his high school years in Plano, Texas and then his college years in Middlebury, Vermont. What's with all the globetrotting, Kavnah?! That's my impression of someone from New England asking me a question. He's been performing at the PIT for a couple years and has also studied at the UCB theatre. In addition to improv, he's acted in numerous plays and written quite a few things as well. You may have seen him in one of many hilarious videos on the World Wide Web or on "Michael and Michael Have Issues" on the television. Or not. Maybe you didn't see him in anything. Go Home Team!

Steve Siddell (2010-2011)

Steve is an actor born and raised in Milford, CT. Sometimes he acts like a lighting technician for movies and tv. He's been in lots of commercials but would love to be in your incomprehensible non narrative film, just ask him, seriously. But don't ask him to light your incomprehensible non narrative film, just don't. Previous to The Baldwins, Steve performed with Punch at The PIT. Steve enjoys thinking about things that are beyond him. Catch Steve every Wednesday night at 10p playing with Handsy.

Brett Wean (2007-2010)

Brett Wean is a writer and actor who has studied and performed improv at various New York City theaters and is happy to call The People's Improv Theater his home. The thing about Brett, see, is…well, he's a complicated guy. Look, I want to tell you so much more than I can really get into right here. (Yes, he's writing this himself.) He loves the films of Eric Rohmer. He's fascinated by the comic strip Cathy. He studied acting and film at Vassar. He's got some secret projects happening. The Baldwins is his third house team.

Stephen Soroka (2007-2010)

Steve Soroka has been improvising for 5 years. Besides his time on a PIT house team, he is also a member of The PIT's first house sketch team, FINGER, and performs two person improv in Jen+Steve (with fellow Baldwin Jen Curran). He is the co-creator the web series Trillions as well as BOF (best of friends), an original series created for the Independent Comedy Network, www.icn.tv/series/BOF. Aside from improv, Steve is also a young leader of NYC's green movement.

Adam Nowak (2009-Present)

Adam Nowak has been acting and doing comedy stuff for a long, long time. So long you'd say "Really? And you're not making a living at it yet?" To which Adam would say "These video games don't play themselves, am I right?!?!?" He was the founding member of The Eclectic Company in Buffalo, performed in the scifi improv show POD at Gothem City Improv and created and stars in the hit show The Strange Box of Dr. Oddbody - his personal favorite thing he ever made up. He's married and has a daughter named Ruby.

Shelly Slocum (2009)

Shelly Slocum (use to be Stover) has been performing improv comedy and sketch in NY for over 5 years. On the theater front wrote and starred in "The Stream" a play about dealing with a sibling who has Autism (The Prospect Theater Company). She also loves to remember the time she was nominated for Best Actress at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for her performance in the play "Crooked" which she also performed in the Summer Play Festival. Shelly's face and voice has also sold you things in the form of TV and radio commercials. She's also afraid of birds because they look like flying nubs in the sky.

Sarah Lowe (2007-2009)

Sarah Lowe (AEA, AFTRA) has been performing in television, commercials and stage shows since childhood. A proud honorary member of the PIT house team The Baldwins, Sarah is currently living in Las Vegas performing in the hit show Jersey Boys. Some of her credits include: the premiere Las Vegas production of Mamma Mia, the off-Broadway hit The Donkey Show and of course her favorite, the show she created with the talented ladies Rebekka Johnson and Kimmy Gatewood, The Apple Sisters. Having been on almost every soap from All my Children to Passions, she's also happily receiveing the lovely residuals from a BMW commercial she shot last year. www.theapplesisters.com

Josh Fulton (2007-2008)

Josh Fulton was born in the woods of the desert, where he began confounding people from a young age. As a teenager, he tried to be a "Rain Maker" for local communities, but only succeeded in producing fog, which severely annoyed townspeople. He eventually moved to New York where he studied at NYU and began performing improv comedy. He studied improv for several years before joining the Baldwins, which was easily the greatest experience of his life. Granted, not many things had happened in his life, but still he didn't see how things could get better. He currently lives in Wilmington, North Carolina, where he is pursuing an MFA in Creative Writing, a degree which has a hefty professional cache to it. So, please, when you see him flying around in his hover Lambroghini, remember that he earned it: he has an MFA. His website is surprisingly serious, considering the tone of his bio.

Kim Weeks (2007)

Smart, fast, and funny, Kim brought a kinetic energy to the stage. Kim shifted gears to pursue the electric game-playing of short-form.

Keong Sim (2007)

An original member, Keong is credited naming us "The Baldwins." Because Keong is a famous actor now, we pulled the rest of his bio from his website. "Keong's first film line was: "In the butt?" in "Marci X", starring Lisa Kudrow and Damon Wayans. Though edited out, he has since worked on other films. Most recently he performed in M. Night Shyamalan's The Last Airbender. In improv, he has studied at IOWest; Upright Citizens Brigade; Chicago City Limits; and the Peoples Improv Theatre (PIT) in New York. He has toured with Chicago City Limits' National Touring Company and performed on Iowest's THE LIST and several PIT house teams." http://www.keongsim.com/
