Richard J. Krysztoforski

About
14+ years in improv. Director of Cat’s Cradle Improv Ensemble (2024 year-long Off-Broadway residency). Former house team performer at Magnet and Reckless in NYC. I’ve coached everyone from indie groups to house teams and run workshops for theaters and festivals.
I’ve studied improv across the U.S. and internationally, bringing a broad perspective to my coaching. My approach is direct, practical, and scene-focused. I give clear feedback, tailored exercises, and honest notes that make you a better performer and your shows stronger.
I also bring years of experience in teaching and Learning & Development, which means I know how to structure feedback and design exercises that actually help you grow.
I’m not the cheapest coach, and I’m not trying to be. I work best with teams who want to grow, not just rehearse.
I also teach improv classes on rare forms and targeted skills. Visit rjk.nyc/classes
