About Orange Tuxedo

On May 20th, we welcome Craig and Carla Cackowski, real life married couple and improv duo to teach and perform. Their connection and communication skills will leave audiences laughing and students feeling like they, too, can improvise like a couple in love.  Orange Tuxedo (Los Angeles, CA) is a two person improv show from a husband and wife team who, collectively, have been doing improv for seven hundred years. In this show they aim to create grounded relationships formed by eccentric characters all taking place in or around the same location. If you like comedy, you may have seen Craig wear various mustaches and costume pieces on Comedy Central’s Drunk History. If you like drunken history, you may have seen Carla drink various beers on Instagram. They perform regularly at The Second City in Hollywood and recently traveled to SF Sketchfest (San Francisco, 2016 & 2017), Phoenix Improv Festival (2016), Del Close Marathon (NYC, 2016), Stumptown Improv Fest (Portland, 2016), Detroit Improv Festival (2016), IF Cincinnati (2016), Denver Improv Festival (2016) and London, UK (Free Association Theatre).

We expect large crowds for their show, so make sure to get your tickets in advance!

Learn with Craig and Carla

The same communication skills that make for a good relationship make for a good improvised scene. Real-life married couple Craig and Carla Cackowski (from the duo Orange Tuxedo) share their favorite exercises that foster open communication between scene partners! Learn how to read each other’s minds, express your ideas clearly, and avoid arguments (while still getting what you want.)

Students will want to get their spots in the workshop as soon as possible, as IT WILL SELL OUT!  This killer workshop will be May 20th from 2-5pm.
