All That Jazz Improv

Apple Bridges

Apple Bridges, Guest Performer, began performing improv in 2018 at Finest City Improv in San Diego. There she completed core improv training as well as the theater’s conservatory program. During the past 8 years she has brought her signature supportive, grounded play to numerous improv teams, shows, festivals, a musical revue, a variety show, several cagematch winning streaks, and audience-participation events. She has studied Clown, improvised Vocal River, and for reasons she can’t explain, she loves improvising with strangers. Her current focus is on musical improv, with Basic Pitches, of which she is a founding member. Apple lives in Escondido California, where she enjoys running in the hills near her home, and where she is regularly reprimanded by the HOA for creating an ever-expanding refuge for local birds on her balcony.
