Steve Dressler

Steve has been performing throughout the city for the last four some-odd years, although he was first bitten by the improv bug back in 1999. As a member of the group Kid Dervin, he has seen the indie improv scene blossom into the busty post-pubescent young woman that she is. His current team, Thunderhead, is an indie group that can be seen performing Harolds wherever comedy is sold. Steve is one of the original members of the UCBW, performing under the guise of The Disorderly and Super Mario. Steve is also a graphic designer and illustrator who has worked on many UCB posters, postcards and projects - including this website. Some people that trained him via class or coaching are Jackie Clarke, Seth Morris, Billy Merritt, Michael Delaney, Joe Wengert, Charlie Sanders, Kate Spencer, Adam Pally, Zach Woods and quite a few more.
