The Gym: Improv and Sketch Comedy

Gary M. Soldati is a mere Massachusetts-bred mortal, though many mistake him for Wolverine (or so he says).  His love for comic books and basketball have led him to two little-known career choices: Gary’s comic book reviews can be found all over the internet and he has coached a woman’s college basketball team to their first win.  Ever.  No, seriously.  Gary has also been graying since high school, which makes him a great typecast father for commercials like those now airing with Continental Tires and Direct TV (now if only his girlfriend would typecast him the same).   After years of stage and Shakespeare work, Gary studied under Barbara Marchant from the William Esper Studio and performed stand-up in New York.  Since moving to Los Angeles, Gary has been writing his own comic series, studying at Groundlings, performing in various sketch and improv theater groups.  Gary recently volunteered in Haiti where he was supposed to be helping those whose lives were devastated by the earthquake but mostly he just realized how F@#$ing lucky he is to do what he loves everyday.
