Coaching Testimonials
"I cannot recommend Chris highly enough. He has a tremendous wealth of knowledge and depth of understanding about every aspect of comedy. He brings a real clarity of vision and I have gained so much direction and motivation."
Lottie Field
"Not only did Chris help me fix my script’s structure, but he also helped me hone my characters and see where to make cuts. Working with Chris got me out of a rut and helped me progress to the next level with my producer."

Instead of written script notes, I discuss the script with you the writer. In conversation we will come up with great ideas and solutions to issues between us. So, if you have written a 30 minute SITCOM or COMEDY DRAMA script, receive notes, feedback and inspiration in this one hour session. Send me the script, I'll read and review and we will discuss.

Harry ter Harr, comedy writer
"Chris has an incredible knowledge of sitcom structure and archetypes. He is a brilliant editor with a clinical and comedic eye. His feedback is always super clear, informed and thoroughly thought through. He works very quickly and is a natural and generous teacher. I really liked that he kept on bringing me back to character as opposed to simply trying to 'think of funny ideas.' This really enriched the project."
Stefania Licari, Stand-up comedian
"Chris is truly the most amazing comedy director and stand up mentor. His passion, care and extensive knowledge make his coaching a must for anybody in the industry or seriously interested in comedy. Also he has this (very rare!) ability to work efficiently with international students, bringing out the richness of various and diverse backgrounds and cultures."
Lauren LoGiudice, US stand-up
"I worked with Chris to develop my persona and he was able to diagnose what I was doing … and where I needed to go. He had great ideas as I encountered obstacles in figuring out how to implement the elements of my persona. It’s now so clear that after a recent performance someone asked to cast me in a film to play a character who is like my persona!"
