INSTRUCTOR

Aditya Pabba (aka Pabba) first started improv when he moved to Austin, Texas, and thought it would be an excellent way to make friends. However, he got hooked on the art and stuck with it. He performed in various Harold troupes and Narrative Troupes across Austin. He eventually directed a South Asian-focused improv show called "South by South Asian, an immigrant show," which was very well received. He performed in plays or hosted storytelling events while not performing improv. He currently performs in "Hush, Hush" at the Mettlesome Theater.
