Lisa Wyczesany
Lisa started improvising in 2012 after making the post-college leap to Los Angeles from Chicago. There, she graduated from the Westside Comedy Theater’s training program in Santa Monica and became a founding member of the long-running resident house team Air Force Fun. The team performed regularly across LA and beyond, including at iO West, UCB Franklin, Second City Chicago, ACME Hollywood, the Denver Improv Festival, and more. Beyond improv, Lisa dabbled in live and online sketch comedy, studied stand-up and TV writing, and even headlined the interactive rom-com improv show, Win a Date with Lisa Wyczesany (spoiler: no actual dates were won).
Lisa left LA in 2020 and returned to the Chicago suburbs, where she was thrilled to find another fun & welcoming “westside” community in Westside Improv.
Outside of improv, Lisa has worked for a variety of LA based TV production companies and advertising agencies, putting her DePaul University degree to good use. These days, she and her husband own and co-produce V is for Vino, an educational travel show about wine. They live with their adorable, chunky, one-eyed rescue cat, Babe—who, despite limited depth perception, remains the true star of the household.
