Poupak's Parisian Life in New York
From Paris to New York and everything in between
"Tightrope Comedy, on the Fly" an article about DCM 14 on the NYTimes
“Besides the amount of time it takes to generate ideas, the essential difference is how deeply collaborative truly great improv must be. (…)
An art form without an author, improv comedy is sometimes compared to a high-wire act, but truly to understand the level of difficulty, imagine a team of tightrope walkers chained together. Then every few seconds one daredevil must make a sudden, dramatic move.”
- Jason Zinoman, New York Times

Fun article. The Times hiring Zinoman as a comedy beat reporter is the gift that keeps on giving.

This bit is lovely. I’m still kicking myself in the ass for missing The Stepfather’s magical show.

About Me
I am a French-Iranian woman in New York. I have a passion for comedy, and have been lucky to be performing all over New York since 2010. I was a TV producer and a head writer for a morning live news show in France, as well as a free lance journalist and a book editor for many years.
Now, I am a life and a career coach (member of
ICF) and a comedian, and an improviser and a show producer - because life is too short and I want it all!
Also, I believe in love.
I am a performer at the UCB & used to produce a show at The PIT in New York.
Check out my indie teams: Pou&Nic and PANTS!.
My other blog: International Comedy Team
My French blog: La Vie à l'Impro
I used to be involved with the Diversity Initiative at the UCB and manage their blog too: UCBDifference.tumblr.com
I fight cancer with a passion - I want to contribute to a world where cancer will be as benign as a simple cold. Where you can donate against cancer of any kind and give hope to families and patients
