Instructor Profile
Kate Dehnert is a writer/actor/improvisor whose work has earned rave reviews and sold out seats. She’s written and acted in TV, radio, theatre, web-series, podcasts, and on her poorly managed Instagram.
In 2022 she was at BBC Studios as a Staff Comedy Writer, writing on a wide variety of programs for BBC Radio 4 and developed her own shows.
“Bizarre, brave, daring, probably dangerous, but most of all smart and very funny. The dawning of a psychedelicomic superstar.” ★★★★½ - The Herald Sun
In Australia, you can watch her work in ABC’s Get Krack!n, Paramount+’s and Channel Ten’s The Project, and Binge’s The Last Year of Television + The Back Side of Television. Kate also created her own sketch podcast called Loner which was in the Australian iTunes Top 10.
