Musical Improv Deep Dive with Christopher Bell and Ammon Taylor

Chris majored in theatre way back when the Greeks made it a thing. He's been in NYC for about 16 years and throughout that time has produced play festivals and shows including an award show for the advertising industry. Chria has been in the Magnet improv scene for about 10 years now. He performs regularly in Premiere: The Improvised Musical on Fridays, The Armando Diaz Experience on Saturdays, and is co-producing and performing monthly in Undressed: The Musical (all shameless plugs).

Outside of the Magnet, Chris was in a run of BLANK! The Musical, and has done shows with Baby, Shitzprobe, Empire, Queens Secret Improv Club (oldie but a goodie), and various indie shows. He teaches workshops to teens, adults, and corporations on musical improv and reg improv at the Magnet. When Chris is not improvising, he's managing a small youth performing arts organization here in the city.

Ammon Taylor is an award-winning pianist, composer, and music director. By day he accompanies dance classes and teaches music to children and adults alike. By night he rehearses and performs with the best musical improv performers in New York. Even later at night, he writes musicals.
