Jacob Horn

Bio
(Performer)Jacob started improvising in high school, switched to a cappella while studying Comparative Literature and Latin at Haverford College, and then moved to New York, where improv came back with a vengeance. His tendency to harmonize, syllabize, or beatbox to any music whatsoever—a residual effect of a cappella that musical improv has done nothing to help—continues to make him an unpopular guest at parties.
Since 2014, Jacob has studied and performed all over the city, including Magnet classes with Jon Bander, Armando Diaz, Elana Fishbein, Megan Gray, Louis Kornfield, Michael Lutton, Peter McNerney, and Frank Spitznagel. He performs every Friday with Premiere: The Improvised Musical, and is a proud alum of Musical Megawatt teams Public Pool, Nightshade, and Zodiac. Whenever he needs a bottle opened, you can also catch him hosting Excalibur! The Search for the Next King Arthur. (Photo: Tim Tiebout Photography)
