Your Teacher:
Dawn Balk
Funny business and show business combined to make a baby who was born in Chicago addicted to the instant high a performer experiences from laughter and applause. Dawn was cast in many performing groups and attended several summers of intensive theater training camps before earning her BA in Communications/TV production from Columbia College Chicago.
Her show biz interests blossomed into a long career both in front of, and behind the camera, creating many large scale corporate, industrial, commercial and educational video productions.
Dawn has been with JEST since its founding in 2018, and is currently a member of the performing group, and of the teaching staff. She is intent on endlessly spreading her Improv mania to guffawing audiences and aspiring performers.
